Bull's-Eye: TV's Next No-Limit Wager - New York Times: "ESPN has signed a deal with Mr. Davies to broadcast a made-for-television darts championship next year as a World Series of Darts; there are to be eight hourlong episodes and the series is tentatively scheduled to begin in July. The invitational tournament will include the 16 top-ranked players in the world, most of whom live in Britain, and 32 Americans, who will be chosen through a series of regional qualifying tournaments. The top prize will be $100,000. 'Unless an American wins it,' Mr. Davies said. 'And then we'll add a zero. If an American wins, the prize will be $1 million.'"
