THE world's top 32 players will all compete in the PDC's inaugural European Tour event in Austria at the end of April.
The first of five £80,000-plus tournaments will be held at the Arena Nova in Wiener Neustadt, Austria from April 27-29, as 64 players bid to win the £15,000 first prize.
The tournament sees the top 32 players from the PDC Order of Merit who enter placed automatically into the Last 64, where they are joined by 32 qualifiers from events held in the UK, Europe and Austria.
For the first event, all of the world's top 32 players - including world number one Phil Taylor, World Champion Adrian Lewis, reigning UK Open champion James Wade and current Premier League champion Gary Anderson - have entered and will take places in the First Round.
There are 20 places on offer in the UK Qualifier, which will be held on Friday April 13 in Barnsley and sees 66 players competing for 20 places.
The European Qualifier will see 22 players competing for eight places on Saturday April 7 in Cologne, while the Home Nation Qualifier received 30 entries as Austrian players fight for four spots.
