Just get the feeling there might be at least one that just wants a bit of a break.
I think nobody would be stupid enough to turn down a PL place, but I can see someone refusing the World Series invite.

5th of Jan last year.
According to PVDarts180 on Twitter, it is announced tomorrow
Is there any reason why they need to announce it straight after the Final, and not the Semi Finals? Chances are that anyone in the Semis will be guaranteed a place, so why wait a day and take a bit of media focus off the Final.

Barry hearn made the announcement after the final last year. (Remember he forgot Thornton for a few seconds).

why tonight: simple, more promotion whilst a lot of folks watching.

Blimey Durrant into the Premier League. Now that would be a shock given the way RVB beat him at the Slam

Barry basically said then because of the entertainment factor. If thats the case Mensur wont be there as long as hes not in the top 4.

How on earth Huybrechts is in over the ultra-consistent Suljovic or the quarter-finalist and last defeater of MVG Daryl Gurney is beyond me.

Big congrats to Kim Huybrechts. He's made a whopping THREE, yes THREE . . . . QUARTER FINALS this year in singles TV tournaments.

He hasn't but if he has a good run in the world's he will be in, don't forget he was in last year until that interview.
