Pretty excited for the World Darts Championship, happening at Alexandra Palace yet again, starting on the 20th! And guess what? You've got two fantastic options to catch all the action – Sport1 and DAZN.
- Sport1 is set to rock the free-to-air game, broadcasting around 127 hours of live coverage. Meanwhile, DAZN will be streaming every one of the 28 sessions without missing a beat. Look out for five talented German dartsmiths – Gabriel Clemens, Martin Schindler, Ricardo Pietreczko, Florian Hempel, and Dragutin Horvat – who will be gracing the stage.
Who's going to commentate all this exciting nonsense, you ask? Well, Robert Marijanovic will team up with the always hilarious Max Hopp while providing live insights as co-commentators. Meanwhile, if you're tuning in on DAZN, you'll be treated to elite commentary from Elmar Paulke, Adrian Geiler, and Tom Kirsten. Basti Schwele will be the voice steering the Sport1 ship.
Oh, and if you're wondering about Gabriel Clemens – despite not qualifying for the Championship directly – he'll still be present in London joining Max Hopp as a DAZN commentator. How about that for some Big League Shenanigans?
So, grab your snacks, your favorite adult beverage, and buckle up for 16 days of darty delight, with only three days off for Christmas and New Year's Eve. Let's get this show on the road!
(P.S. Okay, fine, I added that last bit. I can't help myself.)
