Tour Card handed in, but Steve Beaton can still produce in reaching MODUS Super Series Final
MODUS
The MODUS Super Series is hosting a "Legends Week" this week. In it, Steve Beaton has qualified first for Saturday's Final Stage. 'The Bronzed Adonis' handed in his Tour Card after the conclusion of the PDC World Darts Championship, but proved he is still a player to be reckoned with and won his group by a wide margin.
The MODUS Super Series is a weekly tournament with 12 players competing Monday through Friday for a spot in the final group, which takes place on Saturday night. The player who finishes first after three sessions qualifies directly for the final night on Saturday night. On final night, players compete in a small group stage, followed by semifinals and a final to determine the weekly winner.
The competition begins again the following week, with twelve new players competing for the title. After twelve weeks of competition, all weekly winners compete in "Champions Week," which is played every thirteen weeks of play to determine who wins the series and one with the top prize of £20,000.
'Legends Week' takes place this week, with players such as Steve Beaton, Vincent van der Voort, Robert Thornton and Richie Burnett in action.
Beaton won his group by finishing first with 22 points, the 60-year-old Englishman winning 11 of his 15 matches. With that, he counts four more points than numbers two and three, Neil Duff and Richie Burnett. Ritchie Howson counts 16 points, Devon Petersen 14 and Robert Thornton closes the row with two points.
The numbers two through six in this group will now be divided into two new groups that will play Thursday and Friday for the remaining places in the Final Stage. Vincent van der Voort will also be in action starting Thursday.

- It has been fantastic watching Richie Burnett this week in the Modus Super Series and a fabulous interview with Paul Nicholson on YouTube. 30 years since his World Championship and a repeat of the 96 final with Steve Beaton. Magic boom boom boom boom boom boomrichieburnettrocks16-01-2025

- It's so disappointing the Modus Super Series is no longer on TV. Watching it on YouTube is not really the same. It's absolutely excellent and most importantly Richie Burnett is competing this week, Richie seems to want to headbutt the board when collecting his darts.richieburnettrocks14-01-2025
- I want him to do well this year, but Mike de Decker needs to settle himself, and let his darts do the talking. There's no need to make it easier for the PDC to overlook him in the future.
UndartedWaters14-01-2025 - 2024 was "the year of the underdog", but in reality showed the depth of talent in the PDC. Too deep for the PDC apparently, who got spooked and pulled out the bath plug, most likely to the detriment of the sport. I am sure most fans would want up-and-coming players to be given a hand up, not a slap down.UndartedWaters13-01-2025

- Newly relegated Tour Card holders made up 26/256 of the Q School Final Stage field: 10.16%. They won 3/29 of the Tour Cards on offer: 10.34%. This suggest that the 'worst of the best' are of a similar standard to the 'best of the rest' which is notable but surely unsurprising.Scoobedybop13-01-2025
- Now this is a heart-warming story. A top-32 pro-player giving up his time to help out in a humble role at Q school. Well done Ricardo.UndartedWaters12-01-2025

- Gutted to hear about Wynand, he was one of those one off championship characters that you always remember. He beat Manley at his own game. Maish was the VAT fiddler. I think it was Webster, Wynand should have beaten in that 3rd round. Thank you Wynand for those brief but everlasting memories.richieburnettrocks11-01-2025
