Saudi Arabia Darts Masters: ‘Riyadh Season Bullseye’ launched with $200,000 up for grabs after nine darts | Arrow News


Players competing in the Riyadh Saudi Arabia Darts Masters Season can earn an incredible $200,000 if they produce a nine-darter followed by a bullseye at a World Series of Darts event.

The inaugural season of the Riyadh Saudi Arabia Darts Masters will take place on January 19-20 where eight PDC stars will be pitted against eight Asian Tour representatives.

There will be a top prize of $100,000 awarded to any player who lands a nine darter across the event – and this bonus could be doubled after the launch of the ‘Riyadh Season Bullseye’.

If a nine-darter is hit during the event, the player will be awarded one dart in the bullseye to double their prize to $200,000, which would create the largest nine-darter pot in PDC history.

Reigning World Champion Luke Littler reached perfection on the World Series stage in Bahrain in 2024, and the young sensation will headline the star-studded line-up at the Global Theatre.

Littler will be joined by 2023/24 World Champion Luke Humphries, World Championship runner-up Gian van Veen and three-time World Champion Michael van Gerwen.
