Gian van Veen has resumed his Development Tour dominance sealing Event 17 on Friday evening.

Van Veen topped the table but Luke Littler sealed the virtual lead again after winning Event 16 but the Dutchman won through again to end the opening day.

He saw off Reece Colley in the final 5-0 after a dominant run which saw wins over Tavis Dudeney 5-1 and Adam Gawlas 5-2 in the latter half of the tournament.

The PDC Development Tour is considered the breeding ground of the PDC. Talented players have the opportunity on this circuit to further develop. Players may enter as soon as they reach the age of sixteen. They may then compete up to and including the season in which they turn 24.

Distribution of prize money during PDC Development Tour

15,000 pounds of prize money is paid out per tournament, so the prize pool for the entire circuit of a total of 24 tournaments consists of 360,000 pounds.

From reaching the last 64, players can earn prize money, starting with 75 pounds. That amount then increases each round. The winner collects a handsome £2,500.
