PDC World Championship 2026: Round 3 Tips

You made it! And so did 32 players. That horrible Christmas period without darts is finally over, and we’re back for Round 3 of the 2026 PDC World Championship.

New legends have been made – we see you and we miss you, David Munyua, Motomu Sakai, Nitin Kumar.  Favourites from years gone by also impressed before their departure… Paul Lim, Leonard Gates.

And we bid a fond farewell to SO many seeds. World Champions Peter Wright, Michael Smith and Barney have gone, along with highly fancied Gerwyn Price. We’re feelin’ that one.
