Led by last year’s semi-finalist Gabriel Clemens, the Germans are heading into the Darts World Championship in London with more prospects than ever before. Like every year, it takes place in the Alexandra Palace in the north of the city. The fans traditionally turn the most important tournament in darts into a lavish party with lots of beer and very flashy costumes. The World Cup of the professional association PDC has the most viewers, the highest ratings and generous prize money. The winner receives more than half a million euros. In addition to Clemens, Ricardo Pietreczko, Martin Schindler, Florian Hempel and Dragutin Horvat are at the start from Germany. It is an advantage that around a quarter of the 90,000 tickets were sold to Germans. The crowds of fans will be huge, especially after Christmas.
