Kim Huybrechts and Mensur Suljovic join elite group with German Darts Grand Prix appearance

The PDC European Tour began all the way back in 2012, meaning we are now in its 14th season. This past weekend at the 2025 German Darts Grand Prix in Munich, two players joined an exclusive club.
Both Kim Huybrechts and Mensur Suljovic had initially failed to qualify for the 2025 German Darts Grand Prix, the fourth event on this year’s European Tour. Both players were beaten in the final round of the Tour Card Holder Qualifier. However, due to the withdrawal of several top players, Huybrechts and Suljovic were handed late call-ups and traveled to Munich after all.
Their inclusion means that both Huybrechts and Suljovic have now played in at least one European Tour event in each of the competition’s 14 seasons - joining a select group of ever-presents.
Others to have achieved this feat are Peter Wright, Michael van Gerwen, Joe Cullen, Michael Smith, James Wade, and William O’Connor.
It wasn’t a particularly enjoyable weekend for Suljovic, who lost 6-5 in the opening round to Krzysztof Ratajski. Huybrechts lasted one round longer but ultimately bowed out in round two, missing match darts before falling to Van Gerwen in a deciding leg thriller 6-5 on Easter Sunday night in Munich.
Kim Huybrechts and Mensur Suljović are the 7th and 8th player to take part in each of the 14 European Tour seasons.

- Brilliant, Eric knew the risks and like most who die his age, bollox to being old and all that. Fair play to him and the rest of those who die young doing the same thing.Plaza15-06-2025
- So all of a sudden Littler is just a kid and it’s unfair as the Media’s darling golden boy gets the grief, never a problem though was it while it was Gerwyn Price. Been saying this for ages that something needs doing about crowd behaviour but the PDC don’t really care as long as the pissed up punters flock to Premier League night. The worry for the PDC is that as Littler has gone beyond the darts fan base and is the most high profile player in the world there is the risk that he is bigger than the PDC and then others with more clout (government for example) may start telling them to clean up their act. Bazza, Eddie and Porter will hate that.Mysstree15-06-2025
- As much as it's disappointing that England lost,Peter Wright's speculation didn't help himself and Gary either. It is, however, another pointless tournament. So,like the football club world cup,it means absolutely nothingrick6714-06-2025
- That poor trophy being next to that ! Oh my good god, what a hideous image !!richieburnettrocks10-06-2025
- Inspiration from walk on music Losing weight and trying to improve fitness from the dull as dishwater Dobey. The only inspiration Phil Taylor needed was to win and win and win. Players of today are pathetic, so vain and more obsessed with being popular or their walk on music than actually being dedicated to putting in the effort and winning something.richieburnettrocks08-06-2025
- Agree with much of this though as stated on the Rob cross thread and assuming he has a manager, he has not done a very good job. Wherever there is money there will always be those trying to get a cut, skim the cream from the top, more money in the game, more hangers on, fitness trainers, phycologists, accountants, social media analyst.Mysstree07-06-2025
- Thought Price managed the pace brilliantly — clinical early on, then just controlled the middle legs to stop Dekker building any rhythm. Was that game management though or just natural dominance?dartsmad06-06-2025
- Never come across as the brightest spark(y). Good manager, good accountant, not for Rob. £665k paid to a connected party …. hmmmm. How the hell has he escaped jail, sure i have seen people go inside for much less tax evasion.Mysstree05-06-2025
- This setup gives a free ride to guys at the bottom end of the ProTour qualification, where you get first round European Tour entry and Players Championship seeding. I reckon that if you beat every host nation qualifier and half the rest you could enter every major except the Grand Slam and earn £100k without ever beating a top-32 player.Scoobedybop05-06-2025
- Would agree that winning the League phase is the pinnacle. Imagine the tragedy if MVG had qualified without winning a night in fourth place then won the play offs. It just shows that the premier league is a money making jaunt for a few elites and the PDC and a night out for pissheads. Now it’s over its World Series time, another non ranked exhibition series thats no longer really needed. Bring back some serious tournaments like the Las Vegas Desert Classic..Mysstree02-06-2025
