PDC Q-School 2021 - Feb 8th - 17th

I think Q-School deserves it's own thread.

Breaking news that John Part has pulled out of Q-School. I very much doubt he would have won a card anyway.

Larry Butler has also pulled out for the same reasons as Part. Again though, he had no chance of winning a card.

Look forward to this each year
If I remember right - the format is more or less the same as the players championships floor tournaments
Except here the two finalists each day win a card?
Everyone else gets points depending how far they get each day, and at the end of the week the top x amount of players who haven't already qualifed by getting to a final qualify?

I think it slightly different this year. There's a pre tournament where the best performing qualify for a final round against players who lost their tour card in the year gone by (compensation for players due to less tour events last year). Robert Thorton is one of the players who got a bye into final round

VillaMad · 04-02-2021 5:26pm

Many Irish players involved this year?

Christ, Barney odds on to win his card.

If I was a betting man I’d be all over the 11/10 on him not winning one!

Was just going to post those 11/10 odds, I think there's value there

Deeper Blue · 07-02-2021 2:23pm

Speaking of odds, I see Sherrock is 7/2 to win a card while Hedman is 25/1. There's hardly that much between them? 7/2 on Sherrock is poor value imo

Must be a few backing her.

That and the bookies wouldn't know most of the players outside of the ones who appeared at the world championships. A few players odds have shifted significantly after a couple of backers like Jitse Van Der Wal- gone from 25/1 to 6/1

Dillonb3 · 08-02-2021 1:00pm

Winning start for RVB 6-1

2 German blokes averaged in the 40's against each other

SketchyPrince · 08-02-2021 2:20pm

Barney hardly breaking a sweat so far

Dillonb3 · 08-02-2021 2:39pm

Boris Koltsov 5 nil down comes back to win 6-5

Dillonb3 · 08-02-2021 4:03pm

Barney loses to Croatian player. Nico Kurz and Adam Gawlas giving good account of themselves

Deeper Blue · 08-02-2021 4:06pm

Sherrock wins her first game 6-4

Kingp35 · 08-02-2021 4:08pm

Wayne Warren beaten 6-3 in the first round by a nobody. BDO World Champ struggling....

Kevin Painter out as well
Niall Culleton beat a lad averaging 48 earlier

51 dart leg in that game ffs

Dillonb3 · 08-02-2021 4:51pm

Cameron Menzies disqualified because he was at the toilet when his game was supposed to be on

boomdocker · 08-02-2021 5:00pm

Lorraine and Dean Winstanley still both in, that could be interesting,.,

Kingp35 · 08-02-2021 5:00pm

Fallon Sherrock out in the L64. I'm probably one of the few that's not surprised.

Got timed out at the UK Open before also, that fella is a complete waste of time.

The true test of Barneveld is how he reacts to losses during Q School. Interested to see how he fares tomorrow.

I'm a bit surprised she got to the L64 tbh

I mean if he can't comfortably get through these prelim stages ....
Although there were glimmers - I see he is the only player in either Q school to ave >100 in a game today

Dillonb3 · 08-02-2021 6:59pm

Welsh player Derek Coulson is playing really well in the UK one:
1st game 6-0 95 avg.

2nd game 6-4 91 avg.

3rd game 6-2 89 avg.

last 16 6-0 91 avg.

Eddie Lovely through to final phase of qualifying

There's a Scottish player in the other set of uk qualifiers called Darren Beveridge. His nickname is supposed to be Ice Cold Beveridge. You do get some interesting names in these qualifiers

Dillonb3 · 09-02-2021 12:49pm

The 2 German lads who averaged 40 against each other got drawn again

US2 · 09-02-2021 2:57pm

Barney and Sherrock looking good today, 3 wins all above 90av. Culleton out.

Kingp35 · 09-02-2021 3:23pm

Sherrock just got beaten in the L32. She lost 6-2 with a 76 average. She probably needs a couple of wins tomorrow to get through.

Barney looks to be cruising, as he should be in this company in fairness

celt262 · 09-02-2021 4:29pm

Does the top whatever just go through to next stage as in no tour cards are been handed out yet?

No cards yet, no.

Lost in the 'final' although he already has enough points to get through to the next stage with another day to go.

Kingp35 · 10-02-2021 3:22pm

Wayne Warren is gone today, finished in 3 points and is almost certainly knocked out. Miserable stuff from the BDO champ.

James Richardson is also knocked out and not going through. Other people not going through are Dean and Lorraine Winstanely, Deta Hedman and Wes Newton.

A few Irish lads look like they've done enough to get through, as has Fallon Sherrock and Kevin Painter.

PTH2009 · 10-02-2021 4:57pm

Hard to understand the format of Q school

It's like a world championship in its own, I'd say its so tense as its the difference of playing pro or going back to the day job (fee exceptions like Barney and Painter who have enough £££)

US2 · 10-02-2021 6:23pm

Niall Culleton and Shane McGurik the only two Irish in the next stage?

I think a few Irish players are in the second group of UK qualifiers starting tomorrow.

Dillonb3 · 11-02-2021 12:25pm

2nd group of euro players on now. Matt Campbell lost 6-3 first game against German opponent despite averaging 83.

Christian Kist and Gino Vos both winning 6 nil in their opening games

boomdocker · 11-02-2021 12:45pm

I see a Bosnian fella there, averaged 41, managed one ton in the whole game !!

These lads are gas, obviously just going for the craic.

They'd finish bottom of the boards.ie tournament with those averages.

Dillonb3 · 11-02-2021 1:18pm

Just noticed there's a Jimmy Hendricks and Jerry Hendricks in today's one. Wonder what chances are they'll draw each other

Kingp35 · 11-02-2021 3:51pm

Danny Baggish out first round with a 74 average in UK qualifier.

Alan Norris off to decent start 2 6-0 wins and 89 and 87 avg. Plays Portela now
