19-year-old darts sensation Luke Littler headlines the 2026 bet365 U.S. Darts Masters at the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York.
Littler has claimed championships at the World Darts Championships (x2), Premier League (x2), World Masters, World Grand Prix, the Grand Slam of Darts (x2), and plenty more competitions, and the England native is on the hunt for more hardware.
"The Nuke" is searching for his first U.S. Darts Masters title of his illustrious career after he lost in the semifinals in 2024 and quarterfinals 2025, but he'll have some serious competition looking to stave him off yet again.
Another Luke, whose last name is Humphries. captured the 2025 title when he beat out Nathan Aspinall - who knocked off Littler - and is hoping to become the first back-to-back champ in U.S. Darts Masters history.
The World No. 2 won 8-6 in the championship in front of a record 4,000 fans at the Infosys Theater. This year's event is expected to draw in an even larger crowd.
While it's not considered a "major" tournament in the darts world, the U.S. Darts Masters still carries a level of allure with it being held at one of the most iconic venues in the world.
"I've won World Championships, World Matchplays, Premier Leagues, and all of these big titles, and it felt like I'd won another major...that's how big it is," Humphries told bet365 after he won in 2025.
Eight elite PDC (Professional Darts Corporation) players will be drawn to play against eight North American representatives in the first round, and the matchups will be announced before the first round on Thursday, June 25.
