After the International Darts Open, there are particularly few shifts at the top of the PDC
Order of Merit.
Nathan Aspinall did come level with
Dimitri van den Bergh, who currently holds the ninth position.
Gabriel Clemens provided the first real position change. He swapped places with Krzysztof Ratajski, which means the German is now nineteenth.
A little further down,
Josh Rock is just one spot outside of a debut in the top-32 of the PDC Order of Merit. The up-and-coming talent from Northern Ireland is now positioned directly behind Raymond van Barneveld and Vincent van der Voort. Alan Soutar climbed one place at the expense of Mensur Suljovic. Suljovic now finds himself back in 35th place and is slowly but surely starting to drop further and further down.
Even later in the world rankings, Pascal Rupprecht and Niko Springer did good business thanks to their participation in the International Darts Open in Riesa. Rupprecht moved up five places and is now in position 105. Niko Springer is the world number 109 and progressed nineteen places. Liam Maendl-Lawrance has his first ranking in after reaching the second round in Riesa. He enters the world rankings at spot 130.
