SCO Gary Anderson The 2010 Daily Mirror Grand Slam of Darts was the fourth staging of the darts tournament, the Grand Slam of Darts organised by the Professional Darts Corporation. The event took place from 13–21 November 2010 at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall, Wolverhampton, England. Television coverage of the tournament was covered by ITV Sport, with live coverage on ITV4. It would prove to be the final time a Grand Slam tournament would be broadcast on ITV Sport, as Sky Sports took over broadcasting rights the following year.

Although 8–0 down at one stage, Scott Waites made a remarkable comeback to defeat James Wade 16–12 in the final, becoming the first and only member of the British Darts Organisation to win this event.{{cite web |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101125145229/http://www.pdc.tv/page/GrandSlamDetail/0,,10180~2226946,00.html |archive-date=25 November 2010 |url-status=dead
