The Players Championship Order of Merit has been updated after the latest triple header and among the main changes Raymond van Barneveld made another progression up the Players Championship Order of Merit after reaching the semifinals of Players Championship 26 on Thursday.
The 57-year-old defeated Luke Littler and Danny Noppert, among others, before Van Barneveld lost to Stephen Bunting in the semifinals. 'Barney' is now tenth in the Players Championship rankings with £53,500 after 26 of 30 Players Championship tournaments.
The ranking is still led by Chris Dobey, who has already won three Players Championships this year. Bunting, who lost all three of his Players Championship finals this week, is now in second place, though and is closing in on him.
The 26th Players Championship tournament of the season was won Thursday by Luke Humphries, who was too strong for Bunting in the final 8-7. This title moved Humphries up to 16th place on the Players Championship Order of Merit.
At the end of the season, the top-64 of the Players Championship Order of Merit may compete in the Players Championship Finals in Minehead. Later this month, the final four Players Championships will be completed.
