Updated Players Championship Order of Merit after twelve events

The Players Championship Order of Merit has been updated after the latest round of PDC Super Series action was completed.

Jonny Clayton still remains on top after his imperious start to the year despite not playing during the latest block of action. He is on £35,750.

But two players who claimed titles over the last weekend have leapfrogged Joe Cullen who was in second. Those being Michael Smith and Dirk van Duijvenbode.

Smith was in 7th going into the weekend but now sits on £29,500 in 2nd while Van Duijvenbode led on Prize Money and went from 12th to 3rd with a title and a final.

While Peter Wright began the weekend in 5th and now sits 10th after consistency from the likes of Jose de Sousa and Luke Humphries. Dimitri van den Bergh has also emerged into the top 10 after claiming his maiden ProTour title.

Michael van Gerwen missed the 2nd Super Series and despite playing in Niedernhausen this time, it didn't do his ranking too good going down one to 34th after only getting past the second round once.

After all Players Championship tournaments, the top 64 players compete in the Players Championship Finals. This tournament will be played in Minehead from November 26-28.
