The 2020 PDC World Darts Championship gets underway a week on Friday! Originally set up as a breakaway competition from the original BDO version in the 1990s by the game's leading players, it has firmly established itself as darts' definitive world championship having helped thrust the game back into the public eye, leading to unprecedented levels of support and prize money.
The tournament's format has changed a number of times since the first edition in 1994 with the current format introduced last year. The field comprises of 96 players. The top 32 in the Order of Merit (world rankings) go straight through to the 2nd round. The top 32 (from outside the top 32 in the world) from the ProTour Order of Merit (consisting mainly of non-televised events) qualify automatically for the 1st round, where they are joined by 32 other qualifiers from around the world, including two of the world's top female players.
To take part in the sweepstake, you must pick SIX numbers:
TWO numbers between 1 and 32 - these are seeded players, who will start in the 2nd round FOUR numbers between 33 and 96 - these are unseeded players, who will start in the 1st round
Go! And can someone please pick six numbers for me?

Anyone who has D.I.S.C.O is a winner to me.
Even if I don’t understand the darty thing. Do they win an aluminium greenhouse or speedboat like Bullseye?
