Meet the Contenders:
- Gerwyn Price
- Nickname: The Iceman
- Walk-on Song: ‘Ice Ice Baby’ by Vanilla Ice
- World Championships: 1 (2021)
Known as the player fans love to hate, Gerwyn Price thrives under pressure at the Ally Pally. With undeniable talent and class in his throws, Price handles boos with finesse, delivering ton-plus finishes and maximums. Will his 2023 tactic of wearing ear defenders to block out noise make a return this year?
- Michael Smith
- Nickname: Bully Boy
- Walk-on Song: ‘Shut up and Dance’ by Walk the Moon
- World Championships: 1 (2023)
Bully Boy, Michael Smith, created darting history in 2023 with an iconic nine-darter. Known for his quick play and maximum hits, Smith, backed by the crowd, aims for a back-to-back win. Don’t underestimate his potential for a run to the final.
- Michael van Gerwen
- Nicknames: The Green Machine
- Walk-on Song: ‘Seven Nation Army’ by The White Stripes
- World Championships: 3 (2014, 2017, 2019)
Year after year, MVG is a force to be reckoned with at the Worlds. A three-time winner and six-time finalist, Mighty Mike targets the top spot. When ‘Seven Nation Army’ plays, the Ally Pally crowd erupts, and MVG promises a show with maximums and ton-plus finishes. Can he clinch victory and lift the trophy once more in January?
