Two more days to go in this year's
PDC Q-School and the UK version has produced more surprises than most with Adam Leek, Rhys Griffin, Niall Culleton and Carl Sneyd sealing spots.
In a field that includes Steve Beaton, Fallon Sherrock, John Henderson and Mervyn King, it is one that has seen the players who have either experience at
Q-School or on the Challenge Tour in Culleton and Sneyd and even Griffin being on tour for the past two years thrive.
Do more surprises await or does a big name make it through today? Beaton faces Jamie Kelling to open up, while James Richardson takes on John Part while Order of Merit leader Steve Lennon faces Mark McGeeney.
Currently 'Scuba Steve' is joined by Sam Spivey, ProTour winner Harry Ward, Lakeside debutant recently Stephen Rosney and Thomas Cromwell in the top five spots with Jamie Hughes, Scott Waites, Stephen Burton, Steve Beaton, Mervyn King all high enough to potentially gain vital points today.
Play begins at midday UK time, with the action also starting at the same time albeit an hour later in terms of time difference at the parallel
Q-School in Kalkar. The two finalists today seal Tour Cards, while the top five on the
Order of Merit claim them in the UK at the end of the four days. In EU they get eight spots and the two per day meaning that UK with less entries is more of an uncertainty.
