Luke Littler. Matt Heasley/PDC

The draw has been made ahead of the Poland Darts Masters which will take place between 4-5 July, 2025 at the PreZero Arena in Gliwice. The eight PDC players will face a player from Eastern Europe.

The draw was conducted by Polish goalkeeping legend formerly of Liverpool and Real Madrid, Jerzy Dudek alongside Matt Porter, chief executive of the PDC with the top stars also in attendance next to the draw table.

Luke Littler won the title twelve months ago defeating Rob Cross in the final. He returns to face 'Evil Charlie' Karel Sedlacek in the first round.

Cross takes on Krzysztof Kciuk, 'The Thumb' being one of a number of well known Polish stars in the field. Tytus Kanik being another who will take on top seed this weekend Stephen Bunting in the opening round.

Jonny Clayton played in Copenhagen and makes his World Series return. He faces off against Krzysztof Ratajski and fills the gap left by Luke Humphries who will not play this weekend. Neither will Damon Heta with his sojourn to the US being a one time deal albeit of course he will be part of the main PDC players for the Australia/New Zealand World Series legs.

But for the final one in Europe, it is Chris Dobey who returns and he will face György Jehirszki of Hungary. Gerwyn Price will face Sebastian Bialecki, the rising Polish star. While Michael van Gerwen takes on a Croat but not Boris Krcmar, it is Pero Ljubic as the Green Machine continues his return to action.

Finally Nathan Aspinall is also involved after reaching the final in New York. He faces Radek Szaganski who lives in Ireland and is famously a bus driver in Cork but of course was born in Poland so returns to his homeland for this. He also courted attention previously for headlines surrounding Luke Littler losing to a bus driver albeit Szaganski is a PDC title holder and one of the tougher draws this weekend.
