2022 PDC Pro Tour

The 2022 PDC Pro Tour was a series of non-televised darts tournaments organised by the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC). Players Championships and European Tour events are the events that make up the Pro Tour. There were thirty Players Championship events and thirteen PDC European Tour events, and after the split format last year, the Challenge and Development Tours returned as one big tour, rather than a UK/European split tour.

The prize money for the Players Championship events rose from 2021 levels, with each event having a prize fund of £100,000.^[1][2]

Tour cards

Main article: List of players with a 2022 PDC Tour Card

The 2022 Tour Cards are awarded to:

• (64) The top 64 players from the PDC Order of Merit after the 2022 World Championship.
• (24) 24 qualifiers from 2021 Q-School not ranked in the top 64 of the PDC Order of Merit following the World Championship.
  • Robert Marijanović and Kirk Shepherd resigned their Tour Cards after one year.^[3]
• (2) Two highest qualifiers from 2020 Challenge Tour (David Evans and Ritchie Edhouse).
• (2) Two highest qualifiers from 2020 Development Tour (Keane Barry and Berry van Peer).
• (1) The winner of the 2021 UK Challenge Tour (Jim Williams).
• (1) The winner of the 2021 European Challenge Tour (Matt Campbell).
• (1) The winner of the 2021 UK Development Tour (Bradley Brooks).
• (1) The winner of the 2021 European Development Tour (Rusty-Jake Rodriguez).
• (8) The daily winners from the 2022 Qualifying Schools.

Afterwards, the playing field will be complemented by the highest qualified players from the Q-School Order of Merit until the maximum number of 128 Pro Tour Card players has been reached. In 2022, that means that a total of 24 additional players will qualify this way.

Q-School

The PDC Pro Tour Qualifying School (or Q-School) was split into a UK and European Q-School. Players that are not from Europe can choose which Q-School they want to compete in.

Q-School was once again be split into two stages; with all players who lost their tour cards after the 2022 World Championship and the players who finished from second to fourth in the 2021 Challenge Tour and Development Tour Orders of Merit exempted to the final stage. The first stage consisted a block of three days, with the last eight players on each day qualifying into the final stage. A ranking of other players was also be produced with players qualifying via that ranking to produce a full list of 128 players for each final stage.

Stage One took place between 9–11 January; with the Final Stage held between 12 and 15 January. The winner of each day's play in the Final Stage were given a PDC Tour Card.

The UK Q-School was held at the Marshall Arena, Milton Keynes, England; with the European Q-School held at the H+ Hotel, Niedernhausen, Germany.

UK Q-School

January 12	January 13	January 14	January 15
José Justicia	Brian Raman	Luc Peters	Krzysztof Kciuk
128 players	125 players	121 players	110 players

An Order of Merit was created for each Q School. For every win after the Last 64, the players will be awarded 1 point.

To complete the field of 128 Tour Card Holders, places were allocated down the final Q-School Order of Merits in proportion to the number of participants, with 13 cards going to the UK Q-School and 11 going to the European Q-School.

The following players picked up Tour Cards as a result:

UK Q-School Order of Merit  Jamie Clark  Ted Evetts  Connor Scutt  Richie Burnett  Kevin Burness  Scott Waites  Nathan Rafferty  Cameron Menzies  John O'Shea  George Killington  Mickey Mansell  Nick Fullwell  Shaun Wilkinson

Dartplayers Australia (DPA) Pro Tour

The Dartplayers Australia Tour was modified once again to reduce the amount of travel required within the context of the global pandemic. The original format was that every event would consist of five state round robin rounds. After which an online 32 player knockout round would be played.^[129] After the first event there were technical difficulties with the online knockout round. It was then decided that every state event would be played out with separate knockout stages. With the top 16 from every state after all 15 events qualifying for the Australasian Championships.^[130]
