PDC World Championship- December 2020- 3rd January 2021- London

If their is 8 spots then players will only have to win 3 games to get through

What is the alternative?

Give wildcards out - people moan
Give 8 spots to the PDPA qualifier so you only need to win 2 or 3 games to get through - people moan
Have a field of less than 96 at Ally Pally meaning non-seeds get byes to the Last 64 - people moan

I'd rather give spots to the next players down in the pro tour rankings rather than a one off qualifier.

Wildcard for Barney incoming, would be lovely stuff.

Throw in Fallon... that’s 3 places sorted and get marketing... sky will go into overdrive.
Honestly I wouldn’t mind it but it’s a bit of a kick in teeth for players that are on tour but hay-ho.

Hearn confirmed in the interview the PDPA qualifier on monday is now fixed to two spots.

As I already said I wouldn’t trust what he said as he also thought Mikuru had qualified via the women’s series. Porter runs this sort of thing not Hearn. Hearn is more interesting to talk to in terms of what the future plans are for PL, WSOD events etc.

I assume he just confused Suzuki and Hedman, because Suzuki had played in the Grand Slam. I'm certain that the international withdrawals would be replaced by invitees, as he said.
For many the obvious invitee is any losing finalist, but being an invite allows the PDC to use their discretion.

Confirmed 6 places going to the final qualifier, they are also splitting the qualifier into UK and the Rest of the World, 4 spots for the UK, 2 to the rest of the world. https://www.pdc.tv/news/2020/11/28/six- ... -qualifier

Portela and Gilitwala claim spots as South American and Indian representatives.
