De Zwaan reaches #67 in updated Order of Merit as Clayton reaches career high
News
Jeffrey de Zwaan claimed his first PDC title yesterday at Players Championship 10 in Wigan. This like all recent new title holders has made a huge difference in rankings including the main Order of Merit.
'The Black Cobra' has rocketed up to 67th in the world meaning he has basically secured his tour card past the two year period. For De Zwaan he could easily surpass his ranking he accrued in two years before he had to go to Q-School showing his form; this has been done in 4 months.
Also rising up in the updated rankings is Jonny Clayton, it was another final for the Pontyberem ace who went so close to claiming a second title in as many weekends. This means that he is now closing in on a position in the world's top 20.
A faller ranking wise though is Benito van de Pas; formally touted for the Premier League he has suffered a slump in form in the past year and as a result could fall out of the world's top 16 if he doesn't qualify for European Tour 5. He will be replaced by Darren Webster. Also he could fall further with Joe Cullen only just behind.

- 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
- This coming from the lowest ranked player in it who was only selected by his paranoia for attention from the crowd by having to conduct the crowd to his walk on music. I know a lot of darts fans who cannot stand Arsepinall, oddly I know people who don't like darts but frequently attend events for the atmosphere and have no idea who was playing. So for all the whining players not selected, change your walk on music and pathetically beg for affection from the crowd....please cheer for me ohhh please cheer.richieburnettrocks11-01-2025
