Puha, Heta and Robb secure World Series spots through DPNZ Qualifiers
PDC
The DPNZ Qualifiers have taken place this past weekend in Christchurch with Damon Heta, Ben Robb and Haupai Puha securing spots for World Series events next month.
Heta has been one of the main stars on the DPA tour this year and continued that form into securing qualification for the NZ Darts Masters. Robb joined him and also won the only spot in the Brisbane Darts Masters.
'Big Rig' qualified last year as a last minute replacement for Corey Cadby in Auckland and this time he will take his place from the start in both the event in Hamilton and in Brisbane.
Puha will be involved in Melbourne having already had his invitation to the NZ Darts Masters confirmed. The events begin with the Brisbane Darts Masters on August 9-10 followed by Melbourne on August 16-27.
It all finishes off at the NZ Darts Masters with the event moving to Hamilton for this year; Cody Harris and Craig Caldwell will join the aforementioned Puha, Robb and Heta at the event.

- It’s filling the Sky schedule and generating the revenue. Tournament goes on to long could easily shave a couple of days off with more matches each day. I agree that perhaps all first round matches should be played first.Mysstree12-12-2024
- Wright deserved to be selected for the premier league last year. He was the only player besides Humphries to win a major (European Championships) in the back half of the year. And he was still ranked in the top 8. Plus he's a draw for fans, let's face it that's a big factor.Matilda6212-12-2024
- The game needs Lewis,he's a top bloke. If they put wright in the premier league last year,they can give Lewis a tour card. He has nothing to proverick6710-12-2024
- What a shame about Sophie. She played brilliant darts all week and was always so calm and controlled. Maybe all those matches at the end just flattened her batteries. She will surely be champion in the future. Congratulations Beau on your 3rd World Championship, she admitted she was not 100% on form but still prevailed.richieburnettrocks09-12-2024
- No matter the competition she faces, when she's retired she can say "I was a multiple Women's World Champion" rather than "I repeatedly got knocked out in the 1st or 2nd round at the PDC World Champs." As a female why wouldn't she want to be a women's world champ? Darts players want to win surely? Her average on the women's tour was 84.86 which would've placed her in 152nd on the Pro Tour, she's wise enough to know that as it stands women still can't compete with the men apart from the odd win here and there mainly on the challenge tour. It's about time the PDC really invested in Women's darts and held a world champs for them.Baphomet08-12-2024
- She can play well but not sure at the moment to win a single game at Ally Pally, here she can take 25000 only playing left hand so easy cash for her bankroll. And Littler apart there isn't any 20 years old player to play PDC Worlds so she can widely take her time to step up.cycyP308-12-2024
- I never really liked him but cannot fault his attitude he is always gracious in defeat.medinabello08-12-2024
- Don't need to play well to win this tinpot comp.medinabello08-12-2024
- That 2013 final was the best ever. Taylor was underdog, unheard of however MvG was in top top form and rightly favourite. He went 2-0 up, Taylor equalised. MvG went 4-2 up, Taylor ground him down went into a Power Surge and won the next 5 sets. Brilliant darts.medinabello08-12-2024
- Who cares it's a tinpot comp anyways. She can dress it up all she want however she doesn't have the cajones to play the Ally Pally.medinabello08-12-2024
