Race to European Championship hots up with only two European Tour tournaments to go before cut-off
PDCWednesday, 14 September 2022 at 17:56
Peter Wright has risen to third place on the European Tour Order of Merit after winning the German Darts Open in Jena, with only forerunners Luke Humphries and Michael van Gerwen ahead of him.
Dimitri van den Bergh after reaching the final is up to seventh after previously being 10th with Nathan Aspinall, Danny Noppert, Dirk van Duijvenbode and Jonny Clayton among those falling down the order after this past weekend after early exits.
Further down, Luke Woodhouse despite good recent form will not play again on the European Tour this season and sits just outside of the spots by ÂŁ500 so will just miss out.
While Wesley Plaisier will play in Gibraltar in a make or break final tournament as he attempts to qualify with the likes of Boris Krcmar, Simon Whitlock, Jim Williams and finalist in Budapest, William O'Connor also sitting just outside the spots.
At the end of the season, the 32 best players in the final ranking will participate in the European Championship in Dortmund. This tournament is scheduled from 27 to 30 October.

- Sophie v Paige warranted a final and deserved a longer format, despite the completely shambolic start to the match regarding the scoring which I think unnerved both players, it was an excellent game. Both are outstanding players with great futures in darts. It was a shame such talented players had to meet so early and that Paige is out, she is brilliant and blitzed Sophie in that first set. Fantastic comeback from Sophie, so calm and nonchalant, survived a real scare but hope she becomes World Champion.richieburnettrocks04-12-2025

- Oh fudge off. Who the hell decided Mardull was preferred choice. Just look as its idiotic face. What a talentless waste of space What a travesty when you compare what ITV had. He comes across as a jokey person but it's a class A piece of sheet, miserable as hell and completely full of himself. I don't know anyone who can say anything positive about this goof. Hopefully he'll meet Chris Mason in a dark alley. It really is paving over paradise.richieburnettrocks26-11-2025
- Needs to get the dart tip up when he pulls the dart back and his game will come back.BandB25-11-2025
- Absolutely disgraceful, really I've said many times that ITV coverage is superior to SKY and SKY know that. Jacqui was absolutely fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Emma from SKY is more interested in what to wear than learning about darts. Chris Mason is absolutely the best and greatest commentator on TV, even better than Alex Jacques on F1 and Alex is absolutely brilliant. It is criminal that Chris and Alan will probably never be on TV again, what an amazing waste of talent. Poor Ned, who is just as excellent and knowledgeable on darts as the Tour de France has lost both gigs this year. The whole ITV team from presentation, commentary, production the whole team will definitely be missed and I have enjoyed every minute of their coverage. Thank you so much. John Part is the ONLY decent and knowledgeable person on SKY. I liked Glenn Durrant the player but he is awkward and dreadful on commentary all the rest are utterly useless.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
- Gurney is off form and will completely crack and have a meltdown as the crowd will be relentless, although I think Beau will beat him anyway. I also think Fallon will beat the Helium voiced Chisnall. Poor Gemma has a toughie Peter Wright is also completely off the boil but will probably squeeze past Lisa. Ian White v Mervyn King is an old school classic.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025

- Hate the idea. Darts is loud and exciting without this gimmick format. Golf needs it because it's otherwise boring. Sorry but same applies for royale rumble style knock out.BandB19-11-2025
