Tournament Rules
Group Stage
Players receive two points for a win.
To split a two-way Points tie for any position within a group, the following process will be used:
- Leg Difference
- Group Match winner
To split a three-way Points tie for positions within a group, the following process will be used:
- Leg Difference
- Legs Won
- Legs Won Against Throw
- Tournament Average
- If still a tie for one or more places, there will be a Nine-Dart Shoot-Out between the relevant players to determine final standings, with the highest aggregate score over nine darts being used to separate the players.
In the event a "Nine-Dart Shoot-Out" finishes level between two or more players, those players who have tied on the most points will continue to throw three darts each in the same order until one player scores more points than the other player(s) with their three darts.
