PDC Tour Card

[edit]

128 players are granted Tour Cards, which enables them to participate in all Players Championships, UK Open Qualifiers and European Tour events.

Tour cards

[edit]

The 2018 Tour Cards are awarded to:[1]

Afterwards, the playing field will be complemented by the highest qualified players from the Q School Order of Merit until the maximum number of 128 Pro Tour Card players had been reached. In 2018, that means that a total of 21 players will qualify this way.

  1. ^ Rob Cross is in the top 64 of the Order of Merit, and therefore, one extra Tour Card was awarded to a Q-School qualifier.
  2. ^ Dimitri Van den Bergh is also in the top 64 of the PDC Order of Merit, and therefore, a Pro Tour Card was awarded to Adam Hunt, who finished third on the Development Tour Order of Merit.

Q-School

[edit]

In a change to previous years, The PDC Pro Tour Qualifying School (or Q-School) was split into a UK and European Q-School.[2] Players that are not from Europe can choose which Q-School they want to compete in.

  • The UK Q-School took place at the Robin Park Arena in Wigan from 18–21 January.
  • The European Q-School took place at the Halle 39 in Hildesheim from 18–21 January.

The following players won two-year tour cards on each of the days played:

18 January 19 January 20 January 21 January
UK Q-School

 Eddie Dootson
 Corey Cadby

 Alan Tabern
 Robert Owen

 Arron Monk
 George Killington

 Bradley Brooks
 Dawson Murschell

435 contestants 436 contestants 430 contestants 407 contestants
European Q-School

 Mario Robbe

 Tytus Kanik

 Gabriel Clemens

172 contestants 174 contestants 175 contestants 156 contestants
Total
607 contestants 610 contestants 605 contestants 563 contestants

An Order of Merit was also created for each Q School. For every win after the first full round (without byes) the players get awarded 1 point.

To complete the field of 128 Tour Card Holders, places were allocated down the final Qualifying School Order of Merits in proportion to the number of entrants. The following players picked up Tour Cards as a result:

UK Open Qualifiers

[edit]

This would turn out to be the last year in which qualifiers for the UK Open would take place, as from the 2019 UK Open, all Tour Card holders would automatically qualify for the tournament.[3]
