34 Tour Cards Up For Grabs

A TOTAL of 34 Tour Cards will be on offer at the 2015 PDC Qualifying School from January 14-17.

A record field of over 423 players have entered to compete across four days at Q School for the chance to win Tour Cards to compete full-time on the PDC circuit.

Four players on each day will receive an automatic two-year PDC Tour Card, while 18 additional Tour Cards will be awarded to players from the Q School Order of Merit to complete a field of 128 Tour Card Holders.

The top 64 players from the PDC Order of Merit secure an automatic one-year Tour Card coming into the 2015 season, and are joined by a further 26 players who held two-year Tour Cards from the 2014 Qualifying School.

In addition, Mark Frost and Alan Tabern won Tour Cards from the 2014 PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour, Dimitri Van den Bergh and Josh Payne won Tour Cards from the 2014 PDC Unicorn Youth Tour.

Spain's Cristo Reyes earns a Tour Card after reaching the third round of the William Hill World Darts Championship, while former UK Open finalist Colin Osborne hung on to claim the 64th automatic place from the Order of Merit.

Richie Burnett, Jarkko Komula, Stuart Anderson and Stuart White did not renew their Tour Cards for 2015.

The 2015 PDC Rules are currently being finalised in conjunction with the PDPA and will be announced at www.pdc.tv in due course.
