Harris Secures Ally Pally Return

Cody Harris (PDC)

CODY HARRIS will star in the 2018/2019 William Hill World Darts Championship having secured qualification via the PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour.

Sunday saw the final two events of the year take place at the East of England Arena in Peterborough, after which the final Challenge Tour Order of Merit was confirmed.

Harris finished third on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit behind Michael Barnard, who had already sealed his World Championship return via the ProTour Order of Merit, and Ted Evetts, whose qualification was already assured via the Development Tour.

New Zealander Harris made his Alexandra Palace debut last December and, thanks to a strong year on the Challenge Tour including one tournament win, has ensured his return at this year's event.

Ted Evetts (PDC)

Sunday's play saw Evetts, who also made his World Championship debut last December, claim victory in Event 20 and his runner-up place on the Challenge Tour with a 5-4 defeat of David Evans in the final.

Austria's Michael Rasztovits claimed the first £2,000 title of the day with a 5-3 win over Andy Boulton in the final of Event 19.
