DEVON PETERSEN and Robert Marijanovic have secured returns to the William Hill World Darts Championship as the worldwide international qualifying events concluded on Sunday.

South African star Petersen won the PDC Africa Qualifier to ensure his spot in the sport's biggest event, which begins at Alexandra Palace on December 13.

The Mitchell's Plain thrower overcame Nolan Arendse - the 2015 World Championship qualifier from South Africa - 7-2 in the final.

Petersen also defeated Francois Vertue, Les Gouvela, Rajan Odayar and David Nyemba in the latter stages during a dominant day.

Petersen's 2018 World Cup of Darts team-mate Liam O'Brien was defeated by 6-5 in the last 16 by Jacques Coetzee.

Arendse overcame Coetzee 6-4 in the semi-finals, after enjoying a win over another former World Cup ace, Shawn Hogan.

Marijanovic won the 2018 German Superleague title with a 10-6 defeat of Dragutin Horvat in Sunday's finals day at the Maritim Hotel in Dusseldorf.

The 38-year-old, who previously competed in the 2013 and 2015 events, will make his third Alexandra Palace appearance next month following the success.

A PDC Tour Card Holder and former World Cup representative for Croatia, Marijanovic overcame Rene Berndt and Stefan Stoyke in the latter stages in Dusseldorf before proving too strong for Horvat.

Following the events in South Africa and Germany, the international qualifying events have now concluded ahead of next month's World Championship.

The UK & Ireland Women's Qualifier will be held in Milton Keynes on Sunday November 25, with the PDC Tour Card Holders' Qualifier taking place on Monday November 26 to determine the final places in the field.

Finale, Best of 21 Legs

Robert Marijanovic 10:6 Dragutin Horvat


Robert wins the all Croatian final in the German qualifier

Surely 10-6 is best of 19

[Baswai]

My guess is on Haupai Puha, top ranked on the DPNZ OoM.

Or Craig Ross who he beat in the final of the qualifier.

Craig Ross will replace Tahuna Irwin at the world championship

I also wonder what will be Corey Cadby's excuse this time round and who will replace him.

The Cadby replacement will be more clear cut as the next in the one year list will simply get in instead.

As for what excuse.....maybe he will break another bone. Or something.

Gary Anderson will be seeded #4 at the World Championship, meaning a potential semi-final against Michael van Gerwen.

Jonny Clayton is now provisionally in the Top 16 for the first time, knocking out Raymond van Barneveld. His win over Mark Webster also means Ryan Searle has qualified for the World Championship for the first time. Benito van de Pas is in unless 3+ of the following happen:

What time is the draw Monday on ssn for this I hope they do both draws live round 1 and 2

[Erwin27]

Is it true that Rob Cross will play the first day of the tournament? How is that possible when he have to start in the 2nd round?
Does that mean that someone has to play 2 games (2 games best-of-5 sets) at one day. Isn't that a bit unfair?

And second question: Any news about Corey Cadby?

x1 second round games will happen every session, looked at like a top 32 player "headlining" it. So Rob Cross will play someone who played earlier that session, but will be the only time that happens.

You would assume a statement needs to be made about Cadby either today or before the PDPA qualifier tomorrow

[Deleted User]

Cadby can't get into the country so won't be in.

Also he has broken legs and arms. Or something.

[ssjsa]

[Erwin27]

Edgar is in. 1st round is an open draw.

So Gilding is in aswell then as he is above Edgar.

No, Edgar is ranked above Gilding. Gilding will be in though if Cadby resigns from the tournament, or if van de Pas were to drop out of the top 32 to the advantage of a player already qualified

There are 3 PDPA Qualifying Tickets for tomorrow. So, that does mean that the WC Youth ticket moves to the qualifying spot. So Edgar is not qualified for the moment. Unless Cadby is out ofcourse. But if Cadby withdraws after the draw, Justin Pipe gets an invite.

[Duneh9617]

Unless Cadby pulls out after the draw. Then the highest ranked on the main oom, not already qualified might get in

[mik252]

I’m sure during the Noppert Gurney match, I heard AWL say that there’s three spots going in tomorrow’s qualifier. I wonder if that means the PDC know Cadby is pulling out and are offering an extra qualifier spot, or AWL just made a mistake.

Cadby pulls out before the draw and the next name on the 1 year list gets in
Pulls out after the draw and the next name on the main 2 year list gets in.

So him pulling out has no bearing on the number of qualifiers tomorrow.

[DavidB]

Cadby pulls out before the draw and the next name on the 1 year list gets in
Pulls out after the draw and the next name on the main 2 year list gets in.

How does that work??
