The 2015 World Matchplay is the 22nd annual staging of the World Matchplay, organised by the Professional Darts Corporation. The tournament is taking place at the Winter Gardens, Blackpool, from 18–26 July 2015.

Prize money

The prize fund was increased to £450,000 after being £400,000 for the previous five editions of this event.[1]

Stage Prize Money
Winner £100,000
Runner-up £50,000
Semi-finalists £27,000
Quarter-finalists £17,500
Second round £10,000
First round £6,000

Format

In previous stagings of the event all games had to be won by two clear legs with no sudden-death legs. However, in 2013 after consulting the host broadcaster Sky Sports, the PDC decided that games will now only proceed for a maximum of six extra legs before a tie-break leg is required. For example, in a best of 19 legs first round match, if the score reaches 12–12 then the 25th leg will be the decider.

Qualification

The top 16 in the PDC Order of Merit qualify as seeded players. The other 16 places went to the top 16 non-qualified players from the PDC ProTour Order of Merit who are unseeded players. The field was confirmed on 5 July following Players Championship 14.[2]
