Updated PDC Order of Merit after latest ProTour double header with Ross Smith making top 16 debut and Anderson rise

Last weekend's Players Championship tournament in Barnsley caused a few shifts on the PDC Order of Merit.

Most noteworthy is the entry of Ross Smith into the top-16 of the world rankings. He won the tournament on Saturday, moved up two places and therefore belongs to the 16 best darters in the world for the first time. The other Players Championship tournament was won by Dirk van Duijvenbode, who, however, is still in 11th position. His gap to number ten Dimitri van den Bergh is still substantial at £67,000.

Gary Anderson, Saturday's losing finalist against Ross Smith, made one place gain and is now 22nd. There were no further changes in the top-32 rankings.

Slightly further down, Mike de Decker is approaching the top-50 of the PDC Order of Merit. The Belgian was in the semi-final on Sunday, earning £4,000 for the ranking. De Decker moved up three positions and now holds the 52nd spot.
