Lim reached the semi-finals at
PDC Asian Tour 11 and with one event remaining, he can not drop out of the top five anymore. The top four receives an invite for the
World Darts Championship. Lim got help from Seigo Asada, the number two on the ranking. Asada won the
Japanese Qualifier, which means the number five on the ranking also goes to Alexandra Palace.
Paul Lim caused an upset last year at the World Championship as he
eliminated Mark Webster in the first round. He missed the double 12 for a nine-dart finish against Gary Anderson in the second round.
There was also good news for Noel Malicdem, who will make his big stage debut. Royden Lam and Lourence Ilagan are the other two Asian qualifiers.
