Christian Kist was best non-Tour Card holder on Players Championship circuit in 2023

Of all the darters who do not hold a PDC Tour Card, Christian Kist has shown the best performance in 2023 Players Championship tournaments.

If not all Tour Card holders signed up, the best players on the PDC Challenge Tour will be invited to take the vacant spots. Because Kist was often at the top of the standings, "The Lipstick" was allowed to participate in quite a few Players Championship tournaments.

Kist played a total of nineteen of the thirty Players Championship tournaments. He earned 25,750 pounds in prize money from his participations. Kist had a particularly strong period at the end of September with a semifinal and a final place. These performances qualified him for the Players Championship Finals and the World Darts Championship.

The second best player without a Tour Card is also a Dutchman. Chris Landman earned 21,250 pounds at the 2023 Players Championships. Cameron Crabtree is number three on the list with 17,000 pounds, followed by Andy Boulton and Owen Bates with 14,000 pounds each.
