Two-year European Tour Order of Merit update: More successful than Luke Littler and Luke Humphries - Surprising name on Top

Unlike the PDC Order of Merit, which is calculated over two years, the ProTour rankings are reset annually. But what if you combined the European Tour results from two seasons? Who was the most consistent and successful player on the European Tour stage between 2024 and 2025? An analysis of the prize money over the past two years offers some fascinating insights – and reveals that one German player has been in a class of his own.

The best European Tour player across 2024 and 2025 is Martin Schindler. Germany’s number one has amassed an impressive £190,000 in prize money over the past two years – more than any other player. Schindler’s success is built on relentless consistency. He earned prize money in almost every event and appeared in all 14 tournaments during the 2025 season – something very few players managed.

This year, Schindler proved he’s become a real mainstay of the Tour: 13 last-16 appearances from 14 events, a record unmatched by anyone else. He may have picked up one fewer title than in 2024, but his reliability makes him a worthy leader in this two-year ranking – and the unofficial “Mr European Tour.”

Second place goes to Luke Humphries with £173,500, just £16,500 behind Schindler. The 2024 world champion also claimed three European Tour titles but skipped a handful of events, which ultimately cost him the top spot.

Hot on his heels is fellow Englishman Luke Littler, third with £172,000 – an extraordinary return considering the now-18-year-old had to go through qualifiers at the start of 2024. The young star showed in his first full season that he already belongs among the elite. Interestingly, Littler has chosen to skip European Tour events held in Germany this year – yet both of his titles came on Belgian soil.

In fourth is Michael van Gerwen, who earned £133,500 across the two years. The Dutchman picked up two titles in that period and, despite taking breaks here and there, continued to show flashes of his best form.

Just behind him sits Stephen Bunting with £132,750. The Englishman enjoyed a career renaissance in 2025, capturing his first two European Tour titles and re-establishing himself as a major threat.

Somewhat surprisingly, this year’s European Tour Champion Nathan Aspinall only ranks sixth overall. “The Asp” dominated the 2025 season with £113,500 won this year alone, but barely featured in 2024. Back then, he was ranked 31st and had to fight his way into the European Championship – a sign of just how steep his rise has been over the past twelve months.

The remaining places in the top ten go to Josh Rock, Dave Chisnall, Ross Smith and Gian van Veen. Chisnall, in particular, stood out with two European Tour titles in 2024. However, this season the Englishman had to sweat for qualification, only securing his European Championship spot at the very last moment – proof that the long-time European Tour powerhouse has struggled to hit his usual heights in 2025.

The two-year European Tour table highlights just how consistently the world’s top players perform – and that Martin Schindler has now cemented his place among Europe’s elite. While players like Aspinall or Littler may shine in bursts of brilliance, the Strausberg native impresses through unwavering stability.

One thing is clear: anyone who wants to rank highly over two years must play – and earn – regularly. Those unable to qualify for every event stand little chance in such a long-term table.
