"I don't think much needs to change with the format. It starts off with the group phase love it, moves onto a knockout. I think just maybe a tweaking to the players is how it does. Until recently, the BDO have taken a pool of eight players. You've got your tour card qualifiers, you've got your BDO players and then you've got your major winners, I like the way they do that. I don't think the World rankings should have any bearing on this event," said Edgar.

"I don't feel like you've got eight places, let's move it it over to the WDF or we've got eight players, let's give four to MAD Darts and four to this. I don't think that's the way forward, I think the way forward now is to support PDC development territories."
