After the first match day of the first stage, the
European Q-School Order of Merit is led by Daniel Klose. The German darter lost in the final round on Monday, but did retain four points from the first day of play in Kalkar. Thanks to a leg balance of +18, he is provisionally in first place.
Besides Klose, Jamie Lawrence, Marc Vleghert, Davyd Venken, Marcel Hausotter, Roemer Mooijman, Francois Schweyen and Ricardo Perez are also on four points. Behind them follow Ronny Huybrechts, Owen Roelofs, Dennie Olde Kalter and Jeffrey Sparidaans on three points, among others.
Spots for the final phase can be achieved by reaching the last eight on one of the three match days (9-11 January). Should that fail, players must ensure that as many games as possible are won.
Each win in a full round (without byes) earns one point. Via the European Q-School Order of Merit of the first phase, 89 players advance to the final phase. Only during the final stage will the available PDC Tour Cards actually be distributed.
