Players get injury problems, even young ones. You can have a couple of bad years.
If you are good enough to win a card you are good enough to play the tour.
Is anyone suggesting that, it’s stupid

The pdc only have 64 permanent places and 4-500 people wanting to be in it, you can’t stop people that are good enough to be in the top 128 but not in the top 64.
the protour cant support 128 people pretending to be professional dart players

a 64 person tour that is actually able to see 64 players earn a living is much more preferable to the current situation where people pretending there is a protour of 128 professional players
Uncle Barry seems intent on increasing the prize monies available, talking about a £1m world championship first prize and when that happens all other prize funds will be increased - just as has happened previously so I see no reason why most of the 128 could not earn a decent wage whilst still having the opportunity (albeit a pipe dream for most) to become an instant millionaire by winning the flagship event.

For some reason PC doesn't load the full draw. But went onto 1st 4 games on each board and couldn't see Deta. Then realised there were more games to be played.

Yes it wasn't a reference to you.

Anyway, Jason Cullen must be so unlucky to lose with a 90 average :grin:

so how much are the professionals fro 64 to 128 earning a year then?
