The 2023 Cazoo UK Open was a darts tournament staged by the Professional Darts Corporation. It was the twenty-first year of the tournament where players compete in a single-elimination tournament to be crowned champion. The tournament was held at Butlin's Minehead, England, between 3–5 March 2023.
Danny Noppert was the defending champion after defeating Michael Smith 11–10 in the 2022 final to win his first major title,[1] but he lost to William O'Connor 10–9 in the fifth round.
Andrew Gilding won his first major title, beating Michael van Gerwen 11–10 in a last leg decider when van Gerwen missed a dart at double 16 to win the match and the title.[2] He became the oldest man to win a major TV title in his debut PDC final appearance.
