2007 Las Vegas Desert Classic

The 2007 Las Vegas Desert Classic (also billed as Las Vegas Desert Classic VI) was the sixth time that the Professional Darts Corporation stage the prestigious darts tournament. The tournament was held at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino for the second successive year and was staged between July 2 and July 8, televised on Sky Sports from July 4 - there was no title sponsor for the event after PartyPoker.net’s sponsorship lasted for just one year.

The opening day of the tournament saw a few surprise results - none more so than when Mark Dudbridge stunned three-time Desert Classic champion Phil Taylor 6-5.

Raymond van Barneveld secured his third major PDC title of the year adding to his World Championship and UK Open successes by beating Terry Jenkins in the final.
