Gian van Veen leads PDC Development Tour Order of Merit after second tournament weekend

Gian van Veen has taken over the lead on the PDC Development Tour Order of Merit from Keane Barry after the second tournament weekend. After ten Development Tour tournaments, 'GVV The Giant' stands at £9350 in prize money, followed by Barry with £7425, Wessel Nijman (£5775) and Danny Jansen (£5625).

Van Veen started the second tournament weekend of the Development Tour on Friday with a semifinal place, before winning the second tournament on Friday night. Saturday saw a quarterfinal place and a spot in the last sixteen, before losing to Niko Springer in the final on Sunday.

Endurance of Gian van Veen is severely tested: 26 matches in a day and a half on Development Tour

The Development Tour is the youth circuit of the PDC. This tour is open to players ages 16 through 23. Players who turn 24 during the season may continue to compete.

At each Development Tour tournament, there is a prize pool of 15,000 pounds to be divided. With the prize money, a ranking is established. At the end of the season, the numbers one and two receive an invitation to the World Darts Championship, plus a Tour Card for 2025 and 2026. The ranking winner also gets to compete in the Grand Slam of Darts.
