Michael van Gerwen is drawn to face four-time women's world champion Lisa Ashton in the group stages of the Grand Slam of Darts in Wolverhampton.

Three-time champion Michael van Gerwen has been drawn to face Lisa Ashton in the group stages of the Grand Slam of Darts.

The Dutchman, who has not won a televised tournament for almost a year, will square off against the four-time women's world champion in one of three games in Group G.

Joe Cullen and John Henderson make up the quartet, while 2020 winner Jose de Sousa will go up against Luke Humphries, Mensur Suljovic and Matt Campbell.

World number one Gerwyn Price has been given fixtures against Krzysztof Ratajski, Martin Schindler and Nathan Rafferty in Group A.

Fallon Sherrock, the other ladies player to feature in the 32-player tournament, will play Peter Wright, Gabriel Clemens and Mike De Decker.

However, the most entertaining group in Wolverhampton could be one consisting of Gary Anderson, Michael Smith, Raymond van Barneveld and Joe Davis.

The tournament is scheduled to get underway on November 13.
