The 2025 PDC Challenge Tour, known as the Winmau Challenge Tour for sponsorship reasons, is a series of non-televised darts tournaments organised by the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC). It consists of 24 darts tournaments on the 2025 PDC Pro Tour. The series is being held over four weekends of five events, and one weekend of four events.
The Challenge Tour is the PDC's second-tier system for players who competed at the 2025 Qualifying Schools but did not win a PDC Tour Card.[1] Under PDC Order of Merit Rule 4.2,[2] the Challenge Tour Order of Merit rankings are used to top up Players Championship (PC) events up to 128 entries, should any of the current Tour Card holders not enter the PC tournaments.
Under PDC Order of Merit Rule 6.9, the 2025 Challenge Tour prizes are as follows:
- The top two players on the Challenge Order of Merit, who have not qualified for these via another method, win a two-year PDC Tour Card for the 2026 and 2027 seasons as well as a place at the 2026 PDC World Championship.
- The highest ranked player on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, who has not already qualified for the tournament via another method, receives a spot at the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts.
- The players in the top sixteen on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, who do not obtain a PDC Tour Card before the 2026 Q-Schools, receive free entry to the Final Stage of Q-School.
- The eight highest ranked players from the Challenge Tour Order of Merit who remain non-Tour Card Holders for the 2026 season qualify for the first round of the 2026 UK Open.

Prize money
This is how the prize money is divided:[3]
£360,000 is the total prize fund, with £15,000 being the prize fund for each of the 24 CT events.
The top players on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit act as reserves for 2025 PDC Players Championship series events. If one of the Tour Card holders does not enter or withdraws from a Players Championship event, the highest ranked available player on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit may fill in.[3][4]
