Gary Anderson has pulled out of the World Grand Prix due to the impending birth of his second child with his partner Rachel and his place in the 32-man field will be taken by Mark Webster.
The world number two, who was runner-up to Michael van Gerwen in last year's double-start event in Dublin, will remain at home in Somerset with Rachel.
Following Anderson's withdrawal, under PDC Rule 3.7 the Scot is replaced by Webster, who was the next non-qualified player from the PDC Order of Merit - from which the Scot had qualified.
Webster is a direct replacement for Anderson in the draw bracket, meaning that the Welshman will take on Richard North in Monday's first round in Dublin.
Webster was a semi-finalist in the World Grand Prix two years ago on his most recent appearance in the double-start format, and also reached the quarter-finals on his debut in 2011.
* Sky Bet have confirmed that all bets involving Anderson will be voided - including the outright market and Price Boosts!
