World Cup of Darts 2017: Draw, schedule, teams, results, odds & TV coverage details


The full results from the World Cup of Darts, which took place in Frankfurt from June 1-4.

The 2017 Betway World Cup of Darts took place at the Eissporthalle in Frankfurt (June 1-4), with Michael van Gerwen and Raymond van Barneveld triumphing for the Netherlands.

The annual pairs event started out with 32 teams battling for £300,000 of prize money but in the end it was left to pre-tournament favourites Netherlands and Wales to contest the final.

England had won the event four times in the last five years but with no Phil Taylor on the team for the first time, Adrian Lewis and Dave Chisnall fell in the semi-finals to the Dutch while the highly-fancied Scottish duo of Gary Anderson and Peter Wright suffered a shock exit at the hands of Singapore.

You can look back on how the action unfolded with all the results and links to the daily reviews while we have the full team line-ups, prize money and a list of previous winners.

World Cup of Darts: Sky Bet Odds


Spearheaded by world number one Michael van Gerwen, Holland are the 5/4 favourites to win the World Cup but are closely followed in the betting by Scotland.

Last year's runners-up will also be represented by Raymond van Barneveld and they find themselves in the same half of the draw as defending champions England, who are third favourites at 6/1 to lift the trophy for a fifth time in six years.

They will be without Phil Taylor for the first time in the tournament's history as four-time winner Adrian Lewis is joined by fellow Premier League star Dave Chisnall.

Scotland, who have the world number two and three in their team, are therefore second favourites at just 11/8 - but will the rivalry between Gary Anderson and Peter Wright enable them to form a winning team bond?

Those who feel there could be a shock winner may be tempted by Welsh duo  Gerwyn Price & Mark Webster at 22/1 while the Huybrechts brothers are 33/1 to bring glory to Belgium.
