ThePlayers Championship Finals is adarts tournament organised by theProfessional Darts Corporation. The tournament originally featured the top 32 players from the Players Championship Order of Merit, a separate ranking system that only takes into account the non-televised Players Championship events on thePDC Pro Tour. In 2016, the field increased to 64 players.[1]

The tournament was first announced at thePDC Awards Dinner in January 2008 by PDC chairmanBarry Hearn.[2] It was initially held from late January to February,[3] and originally took place at theCircus Tavern inPurfleet, the venue for the first 14PDC World Championships.[4] For the third edition, the event moved to theDoncaster Dome.[5] The 2012 edition took place in December atButlins Minehead and has remained at that venue for all subsequent tournaments,[6] with the exception of the 2020 tournament, which was moved toCoventry, due to theCOVID-19 pandemic.
