Nathan Aspinall will be the big absentee at this year's Players Championship Finals in Minehead from Nov. 24 to 26. 'The Asp' has not currently qualified and is not going to.
Players can only qualify for the Players Championship Finals via the Players Championship Order of Merit, and on that ranking, Aspinall is currently outside the top-64. The reigning World Matchplay champion can only drop further, as he has not entered the final two Players Championship tournaments of the season.
After 28 of the 30 Players Championship tournaments, Aspinall is only 92nd with £10250 in prize money. The darter from Stockport has simply played far too few floor tournaments this year. Only thirteen times did Aspinall make an appearance, and in those tournaments he also lost six times in the first round, meaning that those participations did not yield any prize money.
