World Seniors Darts Masters 2024 prize money: How much will the players make in Sunderland?

THE World Senior Darts Masters is BACK this week – but fans will be disappointed to hear legend Phil Taylor WON’T be playing.

The 16-time world champion was supposed to make his final darts appearance this weekend in Sunderland but had to pull out because of some damaged scar tissue following hip surgery.
