Leonard Gates is the defending champion after defeating Jim McEwan 9–6 in the 2023 final.[1]

As with the World Matchplay tournaments organised by the Professional Darts Corporation, the Matchplay used the leg format, and the winner needing to be two legs clear at the winning post, with a game being extended if necessary for a maximum of six extra legs before a tie-break leg is required.
