The 2026 ODF World Matchplay (known for sponsorship reasons as the 2026 ApexBet ODF World Matchplay) is a professional darts tournament taking place from 18 to 26 July 2026 at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in Adelaide, South Australia. It is the fifth staging of the ODF World Matchplay, organised by the Oceanic Darts Federation (ODF).

The tournament features 32 players and is played entirely in a legs format. The field consists of the top 16 players in the two-year ODF World Rankings, who enter the tournament as seeded players, and the highest-ranked 16 non-qualified players from the one-year ODF Tour rankings.

ODF world number one Alex Brow entered the tournament as the number one seed. Jack Mercer is the defending champion, having defeated Duncan MacLeod 18–14 in the 2025 final.

The total prize fund for the tournament is A$250,000, with the champion receiving A$60,000.

Overview

Background

The Adelaide Entertainment Centre in Adelaide, Australia
The tournament is being held at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in Adelaide, South Australia.

The ODF World Matchplay was first staged in 2022 as one of the Oceanic Darts Federation's premier ranking tournaments. Unlike the set-play format used at the ODF World Darts Championship, every match at the World Matchplay is contested exclusively over legs.

The tournament has become one of the most significant events on the ODF calendar, with qualification determined through a combination of the two-year ODF World Rankings and the rolling one-year ODF Tour rankings.

The 2026 tournament is the fifth edition of the event and the third to be staged at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. ApexBet continued as the title sponsor after first supporting the tournament at the 2025 edition.

Jack Mercer entered the event as defending champion. Mercer defeated Duncan MacLeod 18–14 in the 2025 final, winning seven of the final nine legs after the match had been level at 11–11.

Despite entering as defending champion, Mercer was seeded second behind ODF world number one Alex Brow. Brow secured the number one position before the qualification cut-off and entered the tournament as the leading player in the ODF system.

Format

The top 16 players in the two-year ODF World Rankings are seeded for the tournament. Each seeded player was drawn against one of the 16 qualifiers from the one-year ODF Tour rankings.

All matches are played in a leg-play format and must ordinarily be won by two clear legs.

If a match reaches the scheduled deciding score, play continues until one player establishes a two-leg advantage. However, a maximum of six additional legs may be played before the match is decided by a sudden-death leg.

The number of legs required to win increases as the tournament progresses:

  • First round: Best of 19 legs – first to 10, sudden death at 12–12
  • Second round: Best of 21 legs – first to 11, sudden death at 13–13
  • Quarter-finals: Best of 31 legs – first to 16, sudden death at 18–18
  • Semi-finals: Best of 33 legs – first to 17, sudden death at 19–19
  • Final: Best of 35 legs – first to 18, sudden death at 20–20

Prize money

The total prize fund for the tournament is A$250,000. The champion will receive A$60,000, while the runner-up will receive A$30,000.

Position (number of players) Prize money
Total: A$250,000
Winner (1) A$60,000
Runner-up (1) A$30,000
Semi-finalists (2) A$15,000
Quarter-finalists (4) A$8,000
Second round (8) A$6,000
First round (16) A$3,125

Qualification

The top 16 players in the two-year ODF World Rankings at the qualification cut-off were seeded for the tournament.

The remaining 16 places were awarded to the highest-ranked players on the one-year ODF Tour rankings who had not already qualified through the main world rankings. The field was confirmed following ODF Tour Event 18 on 5 July 2026.

Alex Brow qualified as the ODF world number one and was installed as the tournament's top seed. Defending champion Jack Mercer was seeded second, while 2025 runner-up Duncan MacLeod entered as the third seed.

Rhys Morgan, Hunter Jackson, Bram de Waal and Niklas Hofer completed the tournament's top seven seeds.

Mateo Silva, Emil Novák, Koen van Dijk and Tyler Grant qualified for the ODF World Matchplay for the first time.

The following players qualified for the tournament:
