Diogo Portela and Zoran Lerchbacher have claimed 2020 PDC World Championship spots during recent International Qualifiers this past weekend.
Portela will compete at the World Championship for a third successive year after winning the Central & South American Qualifier in which he defeated Sudesh Fitzgerald in the final.
He also defeated former qualifier Norman Madhoo and his 2018 World Cup partner Bruno Rangel before defeated Fitzgerald who is similarly experienced.
Lerchbacher on the other hand saw off youngster Rusty-Jake Rodriguez in a closely ran final which saw 'The Hypercane' lead both 3-0 and 4-1 before Rodriguez hit back to level and after the legs were shared, the Austrian finished 107 to claim victory and his spot in London for another year.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
