The 2025 Dutch Darts Championship gets underway in Rosmalen, the Netherlands, on Friday – the latest event on the PDC European Tour – and there’s £175,000 in prize money on offer.

Luke Humphries and Co travel to Rosmalen, the Netherlands, for the seventh of 14 PDC European Tour events this weekend, where the world’s best darts players take part in the 2025 Dutch Darts Championship at the Autotron.

The competition returns to Rosmalen for a second consecutive year, with previous editions of the tournament being held at Maastricht, Zwolle and Leeuwarden in 2018, 2022 and 2023.

Josh Rock came out on top last year, defeating Jonny Clayton 8-4 in the final to claim his maiden European Tour title, but who will reign supreme this time around to claim the maximum £30,000 in prize money?

Dutch Darts Championship Winner To Land £30,000 In Prize Money

The 2025 Dutch Darts Championship has a total of £175,000 on offer, with £30,000 going to the tournament winner.

It will be the seventh event of the year on the PDC European Tour, following on from Gary Anderson’s triumph in Sindelfingen at the European Darts Grand Prix (ET6) at the start of May.

Other European Tour winners this year include Luke Littler, Michael van Gerwen, Stephen Bunting and Nathan Aspinall.

Littler won’t be able to add to his ever-growing pot of prize money winnings this weekend though, as the 18-year-old has opted to skip the tournament, along with the following weekend’s European Darts Open, ahead of a busy summer.

World number one Humphries leads the way as the top seed, with household names such as Van Gerwen, Bunting, Rob Cross, Clayton, Damon Heta, Chris Dobey, James Wade and Gerwyn Price also among the higher seeded players.

Second place will receive £12,000, while losing semi-finalists earn £8,500 and losing quarter-finalists get £6,000. Third round losers accumulate £4,000, second round losers take home £2,500 and first round losers receive £1,250.
