The PDC Asian Tour has been expanded to 28 tournaments, with the final four events of the 2025 season to replace qualifiers for the PDC Asian Championship.
The PDC Asian Tour season will resume on July 5-6 in Singapore with Events 17-20, before visiting the Philippines on August 2-3 for Events 21-24.
The season will then conclude in Qingdao, China from September 11-14 with four days of action - beginning with PDC Asian Tour Events 25-28.
These four events will replace the previous four PDC Asian Championship Qualifiers, making a further $20,000 prize money available to players from across the region.
The PDC Asian Championship will then take place on September 13-14 in Qingdao, featuring a 48-player field which will now be comprised of the following players:
* Top 16 players from final PDC Asian Tour Order of Merit, seeded for the group stage draw.
* Qualifiers from Asian nations' individual knockouts, or the highest-ranked player from that nation on the PDC Asian Tour OOM not otherwise qualified.
* Remaining places allocated up to 48 players from the PDC Asian Tour OOM.
The winner of the PDC Asian Championship will secure a spot in the 2025 Mr Vegas Grand Slam of Darts, with both finalists progressing to play in the 2025/26 Paddy Power World Darts Championship.
Lourence Ilagan was the 2024 PDC Asian Championship winner, and the Philippines star currently tops the 2025 PDC Asian Tour Order of Merit ahead of Hong Kong's Man Lok Leung and Singapore's Paul Lim.
