Was that 2002 final when Greatbatch hit the first live televised 9 darter?

I know it was in Holland and against Coote so I'm guessing that's the one. Veldhoven IIRC.

PDC started using that same hotel venue a few years later.

Entries up despite them canning the BDO points and offering refunds for anyone unhappy with this. Thats one myth busted then.

Yup. Shame the youth numbers seem to be plummeting. Wonder why that is with the other events holding up fine for numbers.

[Deleted User]

However I will say this. 3,300 men's singles entries against 350 women's singles.
The "equal prize money" demands look very weak when you see numbers like that.

I expect that with sponsors, the women actually get more in proportion to the entry numbers.

What are the prize funds for this?

Edit - found it.
Men's winner 5000 euros, women's 2500 euros

So 10% of the entry numbers but 50% of the prize money levels.

With the BDO not offering points, what's the WDF policy on PDC players playing in this?

Aye, if there was no stream they would be fine to play in it.

Correct. PDC players can't play in streamed/broadcast matches.

[ChrisW]

And it is on TV including men's pairs so that's Harms/Veenstra buggered.

Veenstra is not a tour card holder.

That's either a huge whoooosh or youre being more pedantic than Ginge, BV and me put together.

[ChrisW]

They are entered as a pair.
Sure they won it once.
