Darren Webster, Boris Krcmar, Rusty-Jake Rodriguez and Florian Hempel grab final spots for World Darts Championship
PDC
Darren Webster, Boris Krcmar, Rusty-Jake Rodriguez and Florian Hempel secured the final four starting spots for the World Darts Championship on Monday afternoon. The field of participants for Ally Pally is now complete.
In Barnsley, 59 Tour Card holders got the last chance to force qualification for the World Darts Championship. Big names like Mervyn King, Vincent van der Voort, Jeffrey de Zwaan and Mensur Suljovic were stranded early in the tournament.
Darren Webster, who will return to Alexandra Palace after three missed editions defeated Daniel Klose. Pascal Rupprecht looked to be the second German winner and joining Florian Hempel who'd ended Alan Soutar's hopes, but a 124 finish by Boris Krcmar meant that this World Championship ticket went to the Croatian. Rusty-Jake Rodriguez also qualified for the World Darts Championship by winning 7-1 over George Killington.

I am surprised someone hasn't asked if it is legal to be halfway to the board before you release the dart!! Never WAS going to qualify! Sorry for your loss!
I used to like Alan Soutar.....its not a World Championship without Richie Burnett, absolutely distraught !! When you saw the names in the qualifier today, it's actually shocking to see them even having to qualify. You would think they'd be already in the Championship, it's unbelievable. Absolutely gutted for Richie, Christmas is cancelled

- 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
- Aspinall really struggles against Littler. Head to head is currently 9 - 1 in Littlers favour.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
