As well as the bragging rights of winning in the PDC Summer Series and the Grand Slam of Darts spot also available, the Race to the World Matchplay will be concluded on Sunday night at the end of the five Players Championship events.
Ryan Joyce claimed the second event of the PDC Summer Series and as a result has put himself in position for a debut albeit of course not at the Winter Gardens but in Milton Keynes, the site of his first ranking title.
He has gone into eighth as a result of winning the 10th Players Championship event and looks good to make his debut. Ryan Searle has dropped out as a result with a big day ahead potentially for those around him.
Ricky Evans is £500 ahead and will have Dimitri van den Bergh in his sights who is currently around £1,500 ahead. Both Keegan Brown and Vincent van der Voort similarly are just after the £22,000 mark.
Kim Huybrechts is sat £750 behind Searle so will hope to make up some ground today to challenge Ricky Evans, the same can be said for Steve West, Luke Humphries and John Henderson.
As Thursday showed, anyone is mathematically able to qualify for the World Matchplay, could we yet see more shock names add themselves to the field?

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- 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
- Covid or Vaccine victim?Mysstree03-11-2024
