Who remembers Jeff qualifying for Ally Pally via his NDFC ranking? That was a hoot
Was that the year Barry just randomly invited him, Petersen and Ratajski?

Yes, to be fair to Petersen he didn't get the chance to play in his regional qualifier as they didn't manage to arrange it. Ratajski, then the BDO World Master, just missed out via the ProTour and was upset in the Eastern Euro qualifier, Jeff got invited even though the North American qualifier had already been played. The other invitee was Humphries as the hitherto unknown winner of the Development Tour

I've been a fan of Gando's for many years.

But he's made it very difficult in recent years. The Cullen incident in particular.

I liked the cuddly loser version of Anderson.

The 2018 Matchplay makes me kill myself. Chizzy, Cullen, Swan and Suljovic all in hot form. Could have been beautiful.

One fly away from seeing Mensur win the Matchplay, the most tragic event in darts history right next to Peter Wright saving his snakey skin against Malicdem...

What about Lice's birth
The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it.

Gian van Veen in for Luke Littler

Also as CDC is now OOM Jacob Taylor currently holds that spot.
Has that been confirmed, or are we just making an educated guess?
Educated guess can't really see what else they could use.

https://www.pdc.tv/news/2023/06/03/supe ... ship-title

Under PDC Rule 3.9, Jeff Smith (third year of Tour Card) is not eligible to qualify for the 2023/24 World Darts Championship or 2023 Grand Slam of Darts by virtue of winning the North American Championship.

The qualifying place will be awarded to a further Championship Darts Corporation representative, with details to be confirmed in due course.
Could be the Continental Cup potentially, although I don't know when that will be
Correcty. October 22nd. https://www.pdc.tv/news/2023/06/20/clay ... -cup-glory

* Under PDC Rule 3.9, as a PDC Tour Card Holder of more than two years, Jeff Smith was not able to qualify by virtue of winning the 2023 North American Championship. As such, the place has been awarded for 2023 to the CDC Continental Cup winner.
