2022 Players Championship Finals
The 2022 Cazoo Players Championship Finals was the fifteenth edition of the PDC darts tournament, which saw the top 64 players from the 2022 PDC Players Championship series take part. The tournament took place from 25–27 November 2022 at the Butlin's Resort, Minehead. Peter Wright was the defending champion, after defeating Ryan Searle 11–10 in the 2021 final. However, he did not defend his title after withdrawing for family reasons. Michael van Gerwen won the tournament for a seventh time, defeating Rob Cross 11–6 in the final, hitting the tournament's only nine-dart finish and a 170 checkout in the final. In a slight change to the usual format, and to avoid a direct clash with England’s 2022 FIFA World Cup group match with the USA which took place on the evening of the opening night of the competition, all matches in the first round were played during the day in a single bumper session. Prize money
The 2022 Players Championship Finals prize fund remained at £500,000, before going up to £600,000 in 2023. The following is the breakdown of the fund:
