Well. After retiring and starting from scratch getting my tour card, I’m top 32 on the Order of Merit. I’ve worked extremely hard and it’s not been easy but I’m determined and I feel there is more to come.
Van Barneveld makes return to top 32 in PDC Order of Merit: "I'm determined and feel there is more to come"

Raymond van Barneveld returns to the top-32 of the PDC Order of Merit on Monday for the first time since his comeback. The last time he held a spot among the world's best 32 darters was in 2019.
The five-time world champion holds the 32nd spot after the Players Championship Finals, giving Van Barneveld seeded status for the World Darts Championship.
That means 'Barney' may skip the first round at Alexandra Palace and thus enter the tournament from the second round. However, he could possibly face world number one Gerwyn Price in the third round of the World Darts Championship. That need not be a problem, as Van Barneveld defeated Price twice in November at the Grand Slam of Darts.
"Well. After retiring and starting from scratch getting my tour card, I’m top 32 on the Order of Merit. I’ve worked extremely hard and it’s not been easy but I’m determined and I feel there is more to come," he wrote on Twitter.

- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
