The first matches for the PDC 'Home Tour' series have been confirmed, with world darts champions Peter Wright to kick off the live event from his living room on Friday.
Wright will face Peter Jacques in the opening match with Jamie Lewis and Holland's Niels Zonneveld also in Group One.
The PDC's tournament will feature 32 consecutive nights of action following the success of their 'Darts at Home' offering on Sky Sports.
With the UK on lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, darts stars have been facing off from the comfort of their own homes via video links.
Raymond van Barneveld beat Phil Taylor 7-6 in a thrilling contest last week, and the PDC has now confirmed plans for a new home-staged event available for all PDC Tour Card holders to enter.
