Prijzengeld bleef groeien in 2019

Het prijzengeld op het PDC-circuit in gedurende 2019 blijven groeien. Ook de sport bleef in 2019 wereldwijd groeien.

Michael van Gerwen won bijna £1.300.000 tijdens wederom een goed jaar voor hem, maar ook andere spelers profiteerden van de groei van de PDC.

Het totale prijzengeld dat verdeeld werd onder de 32 beste spelers steeg met bijna £700.000 tot meer dan £8.900.000 tijdens het seizoen van 2019, dat liep van Q-School 2019 t/m WK 2020.

HEARN: "Our annual comparison of earnings on the PDC circuit always makes for interesting reading year-on-year, and I'm delighted to see the majority of the top 32 places increasing during 2019/20,

Whilst we've committed to expanding prize money throughout the PDC system in recent years to benefit players at all levels on the circuit, it has also been our intention to reward the elite players who enjoy success in our Premier televised events.

This is evident in the prize money won across the top 32 earners and it is heartening to see the growth in prize money throughout these players as they continue to set the standard their rivals are aspiring towards.

Nathan Aspinall was at Qualifying School just two years ago but has since won almost £500,000 and is a shining example for any player with the ambition to be successful in darts.

It's also great to see the progress of the likes of Chris Dobey, who reached two televised semi-finals in 2019 but also jumped from 32nd to 16th on the earnings list by almost doubling his prize money."
