Race to UK Open Order of Merit after Day 1 of Qualifiers with Van Gerwen topping the table
NewsSaturday, 03 February 2018 at 12:15
Despite it only being one event in out of 6, the UK Open Qualifiers already have multiple names who have assured their qualification to the tournament in Minehead. These include Michael van Gerwen, Michael Smith and Daryl Gurney.
Also they include the likes of Jose Justicia who had a brilliant first day barring his incident with Adrian Lewis who sits in third and through his Quarter-Final of the UK Open Qualifying appearance, if he can make a bit more money could be looking at a pretty high seeding at the tournament which takes place next month.
Ricky Evans sits in the last qualifying spot despite the fact him and up to 65th place which is Rob Cross have no money on the Order of Merit, as a result the players who are currently sitting on 250 pounds and upwards have a good chance or reaching Minehead if they can add more to their total.
As a result of this, this means they have stealed somewhat of a march on their fellow players.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
