Stephen Bunting, Ryan Searle, Damon Heta and Brendan Dolan among Tour Card Holder Qualifiers for Grand Slam of Darts

The eight qualifiers have been confirmed for the 2023 Grand Slam of Darts which will take place between November 11-19 including Stephen Bunting, Ryan Searle, Damon Heta and Brendan Dolan.

Bunting produced perhaps the best display of all. He hit a 111 average to thrash Martin Schindler and seal his spot. Others who failed in the final round included Alan Soutar, Ross Smith, Kim Huybrechts and Richard Veenstra.

Danny Noppert, Nathan Rafferty, Steve Lennon and Martijn Kleermaker were the other names to make it, with the former despite being a top 10 player not qualifying by right due to the qualifying criteria.

This sees the TV event finalists qualify automatically, alongside European Tour winners followed by International Qualifiers mainly barring the World Youth and Women's Series players.

This event will see a short turnaround with the action starting next weekend in Wolverhampton, but the field is now complete. Dimitri van den Bergh, Raymond van Barneveld and Gabriel Clemens were main casualties from the qualifier, with Joe Cullen deciding not to play.
