The PDC announced the eight players participating as their elite representatives on 15 April. Stephen Bunting and Damon Heta made their debuts at the event, with Heta making his first appearance on the 2025 World Series of Darts.
The seedings were based on the 2025 World Series rankings after three events:
Matt Campbell, Jim Long, Danny Lauby and Jules van Dongen represented North America as PDC Tour Card holders. The remaining places were awarded to the Championship Darts Corporation (CDC)'s 2025 Cross-Border Challenge winner Leonard Gates and three CDC qualifiers: Adam Sevada, Jason Brandon and Stowe Buntz.
Six of the eight elite PDC representatives were victorious in the first round. Reigning world champion Luke Littler defeated Jules van Dongen 6âÂÂ1, winning the final leg with a 120 checkout that saw him hit three double 20s. World number one Luke Humphries went 4âÂÂ3 down against Stowe Buntz but turned the match around to win 6âÂÂ4. Nathan Aspinall and Gerwyn Price both averaged over 100 in their victories over Matt Campbell and Adam Sevada respectively, while Damon Heta beat Jim Long 6âÂÂ1 in his US Darts Masters debut. Michael van Gerwen, returning to darts after separating from his wife, joined the other five PDC representatives in the second round by defeating Leonard Gates 6âÂÂ1.
The first round saw two upset victories from the North American representatives, as Danny Lauby whitewashed defending champion Rob Cross 6âÂÂ0 and Jason Brandon eliminated number one seed Stephen Bunting through a 6âÂÂ4 win. Lauby won at the event for the first time in four attempts, while Brandon secured his first win in his second appearance. Bunting produced a 170 checkout in defeat. Lauby commented on his win, saying he was "fortunate enough to take advantage" of a poor performance from Cross. Brandon called his triumph against Bunting his "biggest win."
Both remaining North American representatives were unable to reach the semi-finals, as Jason Brandon lost 6âÂÂ0 to Damon Heta and Danny Lauby was defeated by Luke Humphries. Luke Littler was eliminated by Nathan Aspinall in a high-quality contest, with Littler averaging nearly 109 in a 6âÂÂ4 defeat. Gerwyn Price beat Michael van Gerwen 6âÂÂ3 to conclude the quarter-finals. In the semi-finals, Heta hit a 170 checkout in his match against Nathan Aspinall, but Aspinall advanced to the final with a 7âÂÂ3 victory. Luke Humphries won seven consecutive legs to defeat Gerwyn Price 7âÂÂ2, setting up a final between Aspinall and Humphries. 2019 champion Aspinall aimed to win a second US Darts Masters, while Humphries was looking to claim a second World Series title after winning the 2024 New Zealand Darts Masters.
In the final, Humphries started the match by going 3âÂÂ0 up in a race to eight legs, punishing a slow start from Aspinall. However, Aspinall brought the match back to 5âÂÂ5 through a 90 checkout on the bullseye. Humphries responded with a 142 checkout to make it 6âÂÂ5. With the score at 7âÂÂ6, Aspinall missed two darts to take the match to a deciding leg, and Humphries hit double eight to win the final. This marked Humphries' second World Series victory and his third televised title win of 2025, following his wins at the World Masters and the Premier League. Speaking after the final, Humphries described Madison Square Garden as the "most iconic venue that [the PDC players] play in" and labelled the win an "amazing relief." Aspinall said that the event was one of the best tournaments he's played in a long time, and commended Humphries for his performance: "that's why he's world number one and the best player in the world." Both players thanked the crowd for their support over the course of the tournament.
