The '''ODF World Darts Championship''' is a world championship competition held annually in the sport of [[darts]]. The championship begins in December and ends in January, and has been held at the [[Adelaide Entertainment Centre]] in [[Adelaide]], [[South Australia]], since 2023. Organised by the [[International Darts Federation (IDF)]], it is the most prestigious of their tournaments, with the winner receiving the IDF Worlds Trophy. The event is closely linked to the [[ODF Grand Prix of Darts]] and the [[ODF Darts Premier League]].
The IDF championship began in 2023 when the team behind the PDC wanted to allow players to join into a world-based championship that is hosted in Australia each year. The 2025 edition was delayed from its original December 2024–January 2025 slot to May 2025 due to the passing of the IDF's CEO at the time.


Since the tournament's inception in 2023, a total of twelve different players have claimed the ODF World Championship title. The most successful of them is Elias Storm, who won the title ten times between 2023 and 2045 and appeared in a record eleven finals. Jamie Veyna is the only other player with more than two titles, having triumphed in 2029, 2033, and 2037. Other multi-time champions include Ethan Steel (2030 and 2035), Lucien Bechet (2034 and 2044), and Noel Reyes (2038 and 2042).  
Since its inception in 2023, the ODF World Championship has crowned three different champions. [[Ryhs Morgan]] (2023), [[Jack Mercer]] (2024) and [[Niko Brant]] (2025).  
 
The list of one-time champions includes inaugural winner Rhys Morgan (2023), Jack Mercer (2024), Niko Brant (2025), and more recently, Olivier Marins (2041). Each of these players left their mark with standout performances in their respective finals, contributing to the tournament’s growing legacy as the pinnacle of global darts competition.
