Damon Heta and Ryan Searle have qualified for the final of the eighteenth Players Championship tournament of the season. They will decide among themselves later Wednesday night who will run away with the title.
Heta survived a deciding leg against Rowby-John Rodriguez (6-5) in the first round, but then recorded resounding victories over Keegan Brown (6-2), Niels Zonneveld (6-0), Callum Goffin (6-1) and Danny Noppert (6-1) for a spot in the semifinals.

In the last four Heta had to work hard again, because Cameron Menzies made it very difficult for him. The Scot had an average of 106.66, but had to watch dejectedly as Heta hit a 12-darter and an 11-darter to take a 7-6 victory.
Searle also defeated Steve Beaton (7-4) after victories over Berry van Peer (6-2), Kai Gotthardt (6-1), Andrew Gilding (6-3), Danny Lauby (6-2) and Ross Smith (6-5). Beaton was responsible for the elimination of Michael van Gerwen one round earlier.
A total of 125,000 pounds in prize money is distributed at each Players Championship tournament. The winner of the event will receive a check for 15,000 pounds.

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
