The prize fund breakdown has been released for this years' UK Open with an increase to this year's total with £450,000 on offer for the participants in Minehead.
This is to tie in with an expanded 159 player line up who will take their place in the tournament known to many as the FA Cup of Darts. As a result the winner at the 2019 UK Open will claim a record £100,000. This is up £30,000 from the previous total.
The runner up will only claim £5,000 more at £40,000 but due to the increased format, the money will have to be shared more evenly.
Every round gets an increase with Last 96 claiming £1,000 with Last 64 players receiving £2,000 for reaching that stage. With the increased format and prize fund, it will give players more incentive to come through the field and claim the title in Minehead.

- And this should be the end of it. He was playing like a w****r and gestured as such. End of.Mysstree25-12-2024
- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024
- Was a great match and am a fan of Scott, don't see much of him on TV. How the hell is Cross 5 in the world, he goes out almost immediately in every competition.richieburnettrocks24-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
