De aankomende Development Tour toernooien op 21 en 22 maart en de Players Championship toernooien op 28 en 29 maart zijn uitgesteld.
Drie Premier League avonden en drie European Tour toernooien waren al uitgesteld als gevolg van het Coronavirus. Daar komen vandaag nog vier Development Tour toernooien en twee Players Championship toernooien bij.
De Chief Executive van de PDC, Matthew Porter, verklaarde: "The health and wellbeing of players, fans, officials and staff at events has been at the forefront of our thoughts over the past week during an unprecedented time for everyone worldwide.
We issued precautionary measures around last week's Unibet Premier League night in Liverpool and Players Championship events to keep everyone as safe as possible.
However, following Monday's announcements and further discussions with stakeholders including the PDPA and venues, we feel it is in the best interests of everyone involved in the sport to postpone the forthcoming Development Tour and Players Championship weekends during March.
We had hoped to provide as many playing opportunities as possible for players in the coming weeks, and will work to rearrange these events during 2020."
