PDC Pro Tour Order of Merit update: Gerwyn Price gathers much-needed prize money, Dave Chisnall continues to lead ranking
PDC
Gerwyn Price managed to win a Players Championship tournament last week for the first time since late 2023. This did not earn him much in the world rankings, but for his position on the PDC Pro Tour Order of Merit, this achievement was a lot more important.
In winning the title in Wigan, Price earned 15,000 pounds. This moved him up to eighteenth place on the Pro Tour Order of Merit, which is actually still very disappointing for a player of his caliber. The way up, however, has been set for Price, who is keen to move up this ranking.
Not for qualification for the big tournaments, because Price is already sure of that because of his position on the regular PDC Order of Merit, but a higher position on the Pro Tour ranking increases the chance of getting far in the floor tournaments. This is because the Pro Tour Order of Merit is used to determine the seeding list for the Players Championship tournaments and with his current position Price can meet world class players such as Luke Humphries and Luke Littler at an earlier stage.
Like Price, Rob Cross also managed to win a Players Championship tournament. The former world champion is also not very high on the Pro Tour ranking and now holds the fourteenth spot. However he still leaves big names such as Gary Anderson (17th), Peter Wright (21st) and Michael Smith (25th) behind him.
The first spot on the PDC Pro Tour Order of Merit has been held by Dave Chisnall for some time. He earned £168,000 in the past 12 months on the Pro Tour tournaments, which include the European Tours and Players Championship tournaments. His closest pursuers are Humphries (£155,500), Littler (£151,500), and Stephen Bunting (£151,000).

- Beau also skipped Players Championships 7 & 8 next week, and PC 3 & 4 four weeks ago. If she next chooses to miss the Women's Series and PC 13 & 14 in mid-April then we can make a fair guess as to her reason.Scoobedybop13-03-2025

- Likewise, I have always been a fan of Mervyn and with this worry on his mind, it explains why his form and ranking plummeted. It is really sad to hear this, often chatted to Mervyn and Tracey during the Lakeside days, both are lovely people. It does seem naive not acknowledging the fact it was earnings, surely there must be others in the same situation. I really hope the Kings can get through this....would a go fund me be permittedrichieburnettrocks11-03-2025
- I always like Merv,but he does he seems slightly naive with his comments. I wish you all the best, hope you can get sorted,and try and get back to a decent game,a bit of money.....and get rid of the dogs,if that's your main concern,I believe your priorities may be slightly wrongrick6710-03-2025
- What’s with the dogs element to this story, trying to pull at the heart strings? Just goes to show that being a good dart player does not equate to being that bright. Seriously, ‘I thought you didn’t have to pay tax on winnings’ , your a pro dart player and its your line of work, your not playing the lottery or placing a bet. I think it was Phil Taylor who said you should put a third to one side of all winnings into a bank account, obviously Merv was wearing his earplugs at the time.Mysstree10-03-2025
- The thing is... the folks who "humiliated" Taylor in the Seniors Events never really achieved anything in the important events - like Taylor did. Taylor had/has nothing to prove... and beating Taylor after he had retired is of zero value. Taylor in his prime would have made easy work of all of them. Cheers.MrYnyslas197107-03-2025
- Taylor was humiliated in the seniors events,so he really has nothing to lose by playing littler. I think he should put his darts away,and let us remember what a great player he wasrick6706-03-2025
- actually, since you're asking... yes. yes i do.colt06-03-2025
