Winmau World Masters: Previous winners

Initially organised by the BDO, the Winmau World Masters became a WDF event in 2022 but will be organised by the PDC from 2025 onwards, replacing the PDC's traditional January Masters tournament.

While the BDO/WDF Masters was typically played as set play, the PDC tournament was always contested via legs.

In both organisations, the Masters has been one of the most prestigious events, and you can find the previous winners of both editions below.
