Top tungsten tips for the PDC World Darts Championship

Last season's runner-up Michael Smith ended a run of nine major final defeats by winning the Grand Slam of Darts last month. His confidence is likely to be sky-high as a six-time title winner in 2022, with his eyes firmly on lifting the biggest trophy in the game. Back Michael Smith to triumph on the biggest stage with your free bet tokens.

Bully Boy is the rock-solid choice to win quarter two of the PDC World Darts Championship in what appears to be one of the weakest sections in the draw. His main market rival is Luke Humphries, who arrives in terrific form after back-to-back semi-final appearances, but has yet to hit top form at Ally Pally, having not gone beyond the quarter-finals.

The only competitor to better Smith's haul this season is Michael van Gerwen, who boasts a remarkable ten title victories, including the Players Championship Finals last month. MVG has looked a player reborn this term, hitting a nine-dart finish and a 170 checkout in an 11-6 victory against Rob Cross in the aforementioned final. The Dutchman must be included in betting wagers to deliver a fourth World Championship success.
