Each nations top ranked player was then joined by the second highest player of that country. For seeding the average rank of both was used. The top 8 nations automatically started in the second round (last 16). The other 16 nations played in the first round. Matches were best of 11 legs in doubles, and the losing team threw first in the next leg. The winners of the first round played the top eight ranked teams in the second round, also in best of 11 doubles. The winners of the second round were placed into two groups of four (A & B). The teams in Group A would be seeds 2, 3, 6 & 7 (or whoever beat those seeds in the second round), and the teams in Group B would be seeds 1, 4, 5 & 8 (or whoever beat those seeds in the second round). Each team played each other once (three matches per team). Each match consisted of two singles and one doubles - all over best of five legs. 1 point was awarded for a singles win, and 2 points for a doubles win, with all points counting towards the overall league table. The top two teams in each group advanced to the semi-finals. The semi-finals consisted of four singles games and one doubles game (if required) per match - all over best of 11 legs. Again, 1 point was awarded for a singles win, and 2 points for a doubles win. If the match score was 3–3 at the end of the games, then a sudden-death doubles leg would decide who goes through to the final. The final was the same format as the semi-final, but each game was best of 15 legs.Cash Converters World Cup Format https://web.archive.org/web/20101123031222/http://www.pdc.tv/page/NewsdeskDetail/0,,10180~2225205,00.html 2010-11-23 Retrieved 19 November 2010, PDC.tv Prize money Position (no. of teams) Prize money(Total: £150,000)Winners (1) £40,000Runners-up (1) £20,000Semi-finalists (2) £12,000Third place in group stage (2) £8,000Fourth place in group stage (2) £5,000Last 16  (second round) (8) £3,000Last 24  (first round) (8) £2,000 Teams and seeding Rank Country Top Two Ranked Players Start In 1 ENG Phil Taylor and James Wade Round 2 2 NED Raymond van Barneveld and Co Stompé 3 AUS Simon Whitlock and Paul Nicholson 4 SCO Gary Anderson and Robert Thornton 5 WAL Mark Webster and Barrie Bates 6 NIR Brendan Dolan and John MaGowan 7 CAN John Part and Ken MacNeil 8 USA Darin Young and Bill Davis 9 IRL Mick McGowan and William O'Connor Round 1 10 GER Jyhan Artut and Andree Welge 11 ESP Carlos Rodríguez and Antonio Alcinas 12 FIN Jarkko Komula and Marko Kantele 13 NZL Phillip Hazel and Warren Parry 14 AUT Mensur Suljović and Maik Langendorf 15 SWE Magnus Caris and Pär Riihonen 16 RUS Anastasia Dobromyslova and Roman Konchikov 17 GIB Dylan Duo and Dyson Parody 18 SLO Osmann Kijamet and Sebastijan Pečjak 19 DEN Per Laursen and Vladimir Andersen 20 POL Krzysztof Kciuk and Krzysztof Ratajski 21 BEL Patrick Bulen and Rocco Maes 22 JPN Haruki Muramatsu and Taro Yachi 23 CZE Martin Kapucian and Pavel Drtil 24 SVK Peter Martin and Oto Zmelik Results First and second rounds The matches were best of 11 legs in the doubles format. no 200 First round3 December (afternoon)World Cup - First Round http://www.pdc.tv/page/PDCWorldCupArticle/0%2C%2C10180~2236429%2C00.html December 3, 2010 PDC bot: unknown https://web.archive.org/web/20101206093704/http://www.pdc.tv/page/PDCWorldCupArticle/0%2C%2C10180~2236429%2C00.html December 6, 2010 Second round3 December (evening)World Cup - Second Round http://www.pdc.tv/page/PDCWorldCupArticle/0%2C%2C10180~2236780%2C00.html December 3, 2010 PDC bot: unknown https://web.archive.org/web/20120916222536/http://www.pdc.tv/page/PDCWorldCupArticle/0%2C%2C10180~2236780%2C00.html September 16, 2012 FIN (12) 82.83 2 BEL (21) 83.93 6 SWE (15) 86.58 6 SVN (18) 70.49 2 AUT (14) 86.63 6 DEN (19) 82.85 4 NZL (13) 83.73 6 POL (20) 74.37 2 RUS (16) 74.46 6 GIB (17) 71.61 4 GER (10) w/o CZE (23) w/d ESP (11) 87.87 6 JPN (22) 81.80 3 IRL (9) 74.04 6 SVK (24) 74.90 3 CAN (7) 86.66 6 BEL (21) 82.85 5 USA (8) 83.64 6 SWE (15) 81.07 4 NIR (6) 79.97 3 AUT (14) 85.33 6 WAL (5) 85.04 6 NZL (13) 85.13 4 SCO (4) 87.18 6 RUS (16) 75.27 2 NED (2) 91.62 6 GER (10) 81.79 2 ENG (1) 99.33 5 ESP (11) 92.31 6 AUS (3) 82.96 6 IRL (9) 80.36 5 Germany had a bye to the second round, as the Czech Republic were unable to travel due to the inclement weather.pdc.tv; Czechs Out Of World Cup Group stage Singles matches were worth one point, doubles matches were worth two points.
