Keane Barry has claimed back-to-back PDC Development Tour titles after winning his first event on Saturday night with another final win against Ryan Meikle.
Barry won yesterday in the final against Meikle 5-3 in the final and it was the top four players in the Order of Merit into the semi-finals with Berry van Peer and Damian Mol losing out.
As a result, Ryan Meikle due to his brilliance has claimed his PDC World Championship spot and Barry with victory has all but secured his position at Alexandra Palace as well as becoming a Tour Card holder for the first time.
Berry van Peer is now in position also for a return to the PDC Tour with 'Bionic' ahead of his compatriot Damian Mol who is currently in £3,550 compared to £3,750 so it is an important next event with the conclusion of this year's Development Tour.

- 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
