Ryan Searle is also the new leader on the
Players Championship Order of Merit after winning the third Players Championship tournament. 'Heavy Metal' was in his third final of the season, but now managed to win one for the first time.
Searle already earned £35,000 in prize money during the first three ranking tournaments. With that, he leaves
Gary Anderson in second place with £26,000, while
Luke Littler, with £19,500, has also already racked up considerable prize money.
Behind them follow Callan Rydz, Peter Wright and Gian van Veen with 8,500 pounds each. After all the Players Championship tournaments, the top 64 ranked players will compete in the Players Championship Finals. This tournament from Nov. 22 to 24 will be played in Minehead.
