World number one Gerwyn Price has been ruled out of the Premier League Darts tournament in Milton Keynes after testing positive for Covid-19.
All players and officials were tested when they arrived on Sunday for the 17-night event.
Welshman Price, who was the only person to test positive, was due to face Gary Anderson on Monday evening but will now return home to self-isolate.
He will be replaced in the field by James Wade.
UK Open champion Wade was the next highest-ranked player for the tournament and was in Milton Keynes on stand-by.
He will play Anderson in the opening round of fixtures before facing Rob Cross on Tuesday evening.
The tournament runs from 5-22 April.
