Шаблон:Infobox individual darts tournament The 2014 PartyPoker.com World Grand Prix was the seventeenth staging of the World Grand Prix. It was played from 6–12 October 2014 at the Citywest Hotel in Dublin, Ireland. After discussion with broadcaster Sky, the semi-finals and final format were shortened to the best of 7 and best of 9 sets, instead of 9 and 11 sets respectively.[1]

Phil Taylor was the defending champion having won his 11th Grand Prix title with a 6–0 defeat over Dave Chisnall, but he lost 3–1 to James Wade in the quarter-finals.[2]

Michael van Gerwen won his second World Grand Prix title by defeating Wade 5–3 in the final.[3]

Wade threw the second ever double-start nine-dart finish in his second round match against Robert Thornton. Incredibly, Thornton repeated the feat a few legs later with the two players becoming the first to both hit nine darters in the same match in the history of darts.[4]
