Michael van Gerwen was the defending champion, after defeating Dave Chisnall 5–2 in the 2019 final, to win his second consecutive and fifth overall World Grand Prix title.[2] However, he was eliminated in the quarter-finals, after losing 3–0 to Simon Whitlock of Australia.
This event saw the most seeds knocked out in the first round in the history of the tournament, with 6 of the 8 seeds eliminated, leaving only Van Gerwen and Price to make it into the second round.
By reaching the final, van Duijvenbode became the first person (other than Phil Taylor and Rod Harrington in the inaugural tournament in 1998) to reach the final on his debut in the tournament.
The prize fund remained at £450,000, with the winner's earnings being £110,000.[4]
