PDCWednesday, 19 October 2022 at 16:00
On the 27th of October Rob Cross will begin his defence of the Cazoo European Championship ,the World No.8 will face James Wade on the opening night in Dortmund.
Cross will be confident he can produce in Germany especially considering this is the highest he has seeded before playing in the tournament.
The Englishman is ranked fourth ahead of the European Championship 10 places higher than last year.
Here is how this year compares to previous:
2017: No.6
2018: No.13
2019: No.9
2020: No.13
2021: No.14
2022: No.4
The World No.8 will be wanting to make it back to back wins at the European Championships and it might just happen as he goes in to the tournament being the highest seed he's been before.

- I agree,but there still isn't a good enough German player to be considered. I've said before,scrap the whole thing,its a payday for the top players and gives nothing to anyone elserick6707-04-2025
- The Premier League isn’t a meritocracy as it’s not the top 8 players in the rankings, either at the start of the league or now. Dobey currently 9, Price 12. Aside from the top four Sky get picks, thats not meritocracy.Mysstree07-04-2025

- I agree. There needs to be a points system and preferably just a rolling one year. World Championship should earn the most points though it can be argued that the current qualification system does see a fair few players qualify from regional country qualifiers who would struggle to hold down a place on the Pro Tour. If prize money won is going to remain as the determining factor for ranking then the World Championship should just consist of the 128 Tour Card Holders. Another option would be to take the World Championship out of the rankings and have it as the stand alone pinnacle that you qualify for by winning certain tournaments or your ranking position, sort of like a GSOD+.Mysstree05-04-2025
- The Premier league has literally become a pantomime with a hero and villain, all thats needed is an older dart player in drag to play the joke old woman / queen and a younger woman to play the male hero. Barry is probably working on it now.Mysstree04-04-2025
