PDC Development Tour 2019 set for exciting conclusion

Development Tour

Geert Nentjes 7

The 2019 PDC Development Tour season ends this weekend, with a lot at stake.

The four Development Tour events played across November 2-3 in Wigan carry a collective prize fund of £40,000. That money could turn dreams into reality for select members of the PDC's top young talent.

Two players will earn a place at the PDC World Championship at the Alexandra Palace in December. Looking at the top of the Development Tour Order of Merit, it's not such a straightforward occasion. The waters are muddied by the fact that a lot of the top echelon have already qualified.

Ted Evetts, the runaway Order of Merit leader, has booked his Ally Pally spot. Luke Humphries has too, as has Ryan Meikle. Callan Rydz and Keane Barry will make their World Championship debuts in December. Jeffrey de Zwaan - who misses the weekend's play due to participation in the World Series of Darts Finals - need not worry.

All of that leaves the door open wide for Geert Nentjes. This time last year, the Dutchman had to excel on the last Development Tour weekend to come out of left field and claim a spot. It's a little more comfortable for Nentjes in 2019. Having earned £8,000 across the campaign, the two-time event winner is second in the standings.

He'll be hoping for another crack at the World Championship, after last year's effort ended with a first round whitewash defeat to Nathan Aspinall.

At the other end of the spectrum, Shane McGuirk is on the cusp of something special. The Irishman, fifth in the Development Tour Order of Merit at the moment, currently occupies the second World Championship qualifying spot.

Nathan Rafferty, one spot below McGuirk, is in the chasing pack. Ciaran Teehan is another of the Irish contingent in with a shout. Bradley Brooks and Andrew Davidson also look like they have a good chance. Corey Cadby is there or thereabouts, though we don't know if he'll be in Wigan; he hasn't got a reputation for attending important dates.

Given that any event winner will scoop up £2,000, the outlook could change massively across the weekend.
