2015 Partypoker.Com World Grand Prix

The famous partypoker.com World Grand Prix tournament, which sees players need to both begin and end every leg with a double, will be held at Dublin's Citywest Hotel Convention Centre from 4th - 10th October 2015.

The 32-player event begins with the first round being staged on the Sunday and Monday, with eight games being held per session.

The second round is then played across Tuesday and Wednesday, with the quarter-finals being played on the Thursday.

Friday sees the two semi-finals take place before the tournament concludes Saturday with the final, which will be preceded by Ireland's biggest domestic final as the Tom Kirby Memorial Irish Matchplay decider takes place on stage at the Citywest Hotel.

The double-start event was won in 2014 by Michael van Gerwen, who retained the title, while history was made as James Wade and Robert Thornton both hit nine-dart finishes in the same game - a first in the double-start format!

Phil Taylor has won the World Grand Prix ten times since its inception in 1998, with Wade a double winner and Alan Warriner-Little and Colin Lloyd the other two players to have been crowned champion in the unique tournament.

The tournament features the leading 16 players from the PDC Order of Merit alongside 14 qualifiers from the ProTour Order of Merit and two qualifiers from Ireland/Northern Ireland.
