PDC European Tour Order of Merit: Luke Humphries regains top spot, Gary Anderson flies to third
PDCMonday, 22 April 2024 at 08:00
Gary Anderson made a big jump on the PDC European Tour Order of Merit after "The Flying Scotsman" won the European Darts Grand Prix on Sunday night.
In the final of the Euro Tour tournament in Sindelfingen, Anderson won 8-6 over Ross Smith, taking the top prize of 30,000 pounds. As a result, Anderson moved up from 30th place to third. With a total of 34,000 pounds, Anderson still has to beat Luke Humphries (44,000 pounds) and Martin Schindler (41,000 pounds). Humphries has thus regained the lead position after briefly losing it to Schindler last week.
Gerwyn Price is number four on the Euro Tour Order of Merit with 33,000 pounds. Teenage sensation Luke Littler scooped 2,500 pounds last weekend and is now in fifth place with 32,500 pounds. Behind that follow Rob Cross and Ross Smith, before Michael van Gerwen is the highest-ranked Dutchman in eighth position. Right behind that is compatriot Danny Noppert, while Stephen Bunting completes the top ten.
After four Euro Tour tournaments, there are still three players who participated in all events but do not yet appear on the Euro Tour Order of Merit. Dirk van Duijvenbode, Krzysztof Ratajski and Andrew Gilding had automatically qualified for the first four Euro Tours, but also lost their opening matches each time.
At the end of the season, the 32 best players in the rankings will compete in the European Championship in Dortmund. This tournament is scheduled from Oct. 24 to 27.

- Sophie v Paige warranted a final and deserved a longer format, despite the completely shambolic start to the match regarding the scoring which I think unnerved both players, it was an excellent game. Both are outstanding players with great futures in darts. It was a shame such talented players had to meet so early and that Paige is out, she is brilliant and blitzed Sophie in that first set. Fantastic comeback from Sophie, so calm and nonchalant, survived a real scare but hope she becomes World Champion.richieburnettrocks04-12-2025

- Oh fudge off. Who the hell decided Mardull was preferred choice. Just look as its idiotic face. What a talentless waste of space What a travesty when you compare what ITV had. He comes across as a jokey person but it's a class A piece of sheet, miserable as hell and completely full of himself. I don't know anyone who can say anything positive about this goof. Hopefully he'll meet Chris Mason in a dark alley. It really is paving over paradise.richieburnettrocks26-11-2025
- Needs to get the dart tip up when he pulls the dart back and his game will come back.BandB25-11-2025
- Absolutely disgraceful, really I've said many times that ITV coverage is superior to SKY and SKY know that. Jacqui was absolutely fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Emma from SKY is more interested in what to wear than learning about darts. Chris Mason is absolutely the best and greatest commentator on TV, even better than Alex Jacques on F1 and Alex is absolutely brilliant. It is criminal that Chris and Alan will probably never be on TV again, what an amazing waste of talent. Poor Ned, who is just as excellent and knowledgeable on darts as the Tour de France has lost both gigs this year. The whole ITV team from presentation, commentary, production the whole team will definitely be missed and I have enjoyed every minute of their coverage. Thank you so much. John Part is the ONLY decent and knowledgeable person on SKY. I liked Glenn Durrant the player but he is awkward and dreadful on commentary all the rest are utterly useless.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
- Gurney is off form and will completely crack and have a meltdown as the crowd will be relentless, although I think Beau will beat him anyway. I also think Fallon will beat the Helium voiced Chisnall. Poor Gemma has a toughie Peter Wright is also completely off the boil but will probably squeeze past Lisa. Ian White v Mervyn King is an old school classic.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025

- Hate the idea. Darts is loud and exciting without this gimmick format. Golf needs it because it's otherwise boring. Sorry but same applies for royale rumble style knock out.BandB19-11-2025
