The European Darts Grand Prix in Sindelfingen next weekend has become the third PDC European Tour event to be postponed due to the Coronavirus epidemic - but the governing body have added a new Players Championship on March 28-29 in Milton Keynes.
The PDC announced on Tuesday at that the European Darts Open in Leverkusen and the German Darts Grand Prix in Munich would not be taking place following measures put in place by federal governments in the regions of Germany.
- European Darts Grand Prix (ET2) - March 20-22 in Sindelfingen
- European Darts Open (ET3) - March 27-29 in Leverkusen
- German Darts Grand Prix (ET4) - April 11-13 in Munich
This measure has also been adopted now in Stuttgart, meaning that the year's planned second European Tour event in Sindelfingen from March 20-22 will be postponed.
The PDC are working with PDC Europe to schedule new dates for the events, with the possibility that other planned tournaments may move in the calendar to accommodate the rescheduled European Tour events.
Tickets already purchased for the events will remain valid for the equivalent session of the re-arranged event, or refunds will be available.
The PDC have sought to fill the gaps in the calendar by staging two £75,000 Players Championship events at the Marshall Arena on Saturday March 28 and Sunday March 29.
The tournaments will be streamed live online through PDCTV, with two streams available simultaneously throughout each event.
PDC Tour Card Holders and PDPA Associate Members can now enter these events online through the PDC Online Entry System at www.pdcplayers.com. Entries will close at 1400 GMT on Friday March 20.
The events are currently titled for player entries as Players Championship 9MK and Players Championship 10MK. However, following the close of entries, subsequent Players Championship events in 2020 will be renumbered accordingly.
Rescheduled dates for the postponed European Tour events will be confirmed in due course.
