PDC Order of Merit update: King back in world's top 20 after run to final in Coventry

The PDC Order of Merit has been updated after the penultimate event of the year in the form of the Players Championship Finals.

Michael van Gerwen claimed victory and has put an interesting complexion into the race to the World Number One spot after the World Championship.

Peter Wright was set to take over as World Number One but he will need to at least better Van Gerwen's run now as he is only a few thousand ahead.

But he became the latest player to break the £1m mark this past weekend in his run to the semi-finals.

Mervyn King went all the way to the final and is now into the top 20 going up five spots to 19th in defeat to Mighty Mike.

Jose de Sousa as a result of recent form is further into the World's top 16 and will have Daryl Gurney, Glen Durrant and Gary Anderson in his sights next as he aims towards the top 10.

While Mensur Suljovic was one of the main players who went down as he fell to 20th after not attending recent events.

Luke Woodhouse and Damon Heta as well after good spells in Coventry are up further into the top 50.
