After much thought the last few days, I have decided that I will delay my plans to travel back to Russia and stay in England to participate in the PDC Q School at Wigan.

I feel it’s right as one of the leading ladies in Darts to show my support and appreciation to the PDC for the chances that they have created for the Ladies this year and also there commitment going forward in guaranteeing the Ladies 2 places in the 2020 PDC World Championships.

With the talk of the possibility of more stand-alone ladies events within the PDC in 2020, The opportunities are now endless if a Tour Card is gained and there are also great opportunities to play the Challenge Tour if no tour card is gained in 2019.

I would like to thank my sponsors Monster Barrels Design, L-Style, Cameo, Adcon and Projoy for there continued support as my journey would not be able to continue without your support.

And lastly thank you to my Fans and Supporters all over the world for the support and encouragement I receive from you, It means so much to me to know you support and follow me.

Is Burnett attending Q-school?

Yes. His entry is confirmed.

Edit

Each player has one guest has been confirmed.

See John Lowe M.B.E is asking for a free pass for Durrant.
Mr Hearn he say 'No'

Quite right. The rules are known.
Well done Barry.

I think they could make an exception now he has 3 Lakesides. The PDC should want all the top players and Durrant is clearly a top tier player regardless of code. Should he fail at QS that wont alter anything he will just have had a couple of poor days or faced players who lifted their game against him.

He is unique at QS in that he is the only one who is 100% certain to be able to compete with the top half of the PDC and as such if he isnt there the PDC will be weaker for it.

Would be interesting to know if the snooker tour Barry looks after has wildcards written into their rules or not as they are given...

He is of comparable standard to a lot of the top 64, I am sure the PDC could not care less if he qualifies or not.

Yes thanks. These two were given wildcards to the tour, my question was is wildcards written into their rules or not?

Yes, I think the top 3 all time prize money winners are guaranteed invitational wildcards each season.

No idea, cant seem to find anything. I assume they were both given cards as a kinda lifetime achievement thing, that isnt going to happen for someone who has played less than 20 (?) PDC games in his career to date.

Thanks Dannyboy and Ginge - just wondered how it worked that's all!

Can someone draw up a list of the lakeside entrants and if they are going to q-school or not, then update it from the finalised list and their progress i.e. card acheived or not. Bit of an ask i know but i'm sure one of you lovely folk will be up for it.
