Michael Smith back up to number 9 in updated PDC Order of Merit
NewsMonday, 05 February 2018 at 13:30
Michael Smith has just had a great few days defeating Gary Anderson in the Premier League on Thursday and then winning his first title of the year in the form of UK Open Qualifier 3 yesterday.
He now as a result of his great Pro Tour form this weekend has surpassed players that didn't really have a great weekend in the form of Raymond van Barneveld and James Wade going up two places as a result.
He will now have his sights set on Simon Whitlock and the seemingly out of form Dave Chisnall as he tries to reach the world's top 5 for the first time and potentially get into the World Cup team.
Speaking of World Cup, Zoran Lerchbacher as a result of his final this weekend has now surpassed fellow Austrian, Rowby-John Rodriguez and if that stays the same and he accepts the invite, he could join Mensur Suljovic at the World Cup for the first time.

- I'll miss Steve Thank you for all the memories and great matches. I was there when he (luckily) won the 96 World Championship, I expected him to win and perfom better in the PDC than he did as he moved over so early when he still had good form. Looks great for 60, today's players should take note !! Sure he was a driving instructor when in the BDO. A cool guy, very friendly and interesting to chat with.No theatrics on stage, just got on and played darts Sign him up SKY !!!richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- I agree. With the number of tournaments these days?, Phil could probably earn £2 million a year if still playing. I can't believe Chisnall has earned over half a million for being so inept, he barely gets past the first round, stealing a living. That's outrageous.richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- As prize money increases each year and there are now more tournaments then logically breaking the £2 million barrier is going to happen, only thing preventing it is the now deeper strength in depth of the darting field. If you took Taylor’s best two consecutive years and substituted the prize money from now onto the tournaments he won he would have passed the £2 million.Mysstree26-11-2024
- Only Gary Anderson in MVG’s quarter who should really trouble him assuming he wins his first two games. If he can’t get out of that quarter of the draw he will be hard pushed to win another World Title.Mysstree26-11-2024
- With the general noise / buzz coming from the crowd can a player seriously believe he can hear darts rattling in the other players hand?Mysstree23-11-2024
