Hamilton's last title was a UK Open Qualifier which stopped a seven year wait at the time and it is eight years this time albeit in a tournament in which the overall winners this season had already been decided.

Those being Scott Williams winning the Challenge Tour and the spot at the Grand Slam of Darts with Robert Owen set for a return to the PDC Tour. Danny van Trijp will step up for the first time and will like Owen play at the Alexandra Palace for the first time this Christmas.
