Fuck it, I'm starting that again. Has anyone ever won three players championships in a row...?
I would imagine the groper has, or possibly MvG ?

A certain MVG did it back in 2016 under the "old" format: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_PDC_Pro_Tour

It was on three consecutive days as well.
2020 World Grand Prix Lucky Dip winner!
2x 2019 Q-School Lucky Dip winner!

Both as valuable as the Lakeside piss pot!

De Sousa looked unstoppable halfway through that match, fair play to headshaker, showed grit more than head shaking which kept him in the match

OBM still 64th somehow. Will he manage it? He's played in enough of these to have booked a spot by now if he were any good.


Erik Middelkoop @eamiddelkoop
Players Championship 2020 (20/23)

Top 64 after this week qualifies for the finals. Ryan Meikle, Rowby-John Rodriguez and Mike De Decker move into the provisional field after today

In an alternate universe, James Wilson and Steve West won PDC Pro Tour events in 2016. Doesn't bear thinking about to be honest.

I've noticed how Harms this year has been a complete waste of potential. He surely would be relatively comfortable within the top 64 after two years if he applied himself as a full professional. Compare him to ex-BDO compatriot Kleermaker, who since Q-school has squeezed all of his practice into application. He made the decision early to do the PDC tour properly and is currently reaping the rewards.

On the contrary, it seems Harms only did Q-school as a last resort because the BDO died and consequently will probably not go places as he never really wanted to jump in the first place. Otherwise he'd have jumped with Kist or Dekker or Noppert at any of their Q-school attempts. There might be a reason why he hasn't played, COVID or whatever which would be understandable but if not then the above applies. Then again, Kai Fan Leung travels from Asia and Heta from Australia so it puts things into perspective.

At least he has got his gloves if he struggles to pay the heating bill

Isn’t Harms an electrician by trade? If so maybe he is happy doing that and he was happy playing darts part time, a bit like what Waites and Duzza did. I am sure if he committed full time he would get in the top 64 at least, who knows?
If it’s Covid related why he isn’t choosing to enter events, then fair enough. If he isn’t bothered, then he will no doubt lose his tour card come January 2022
It’s a bit hard to judge anyone with the Crazy year to date. Where does he have to be ranked to get a place in the worlds?

he would have to be in top 32 main OOM or top 32 Pro Tour OOM, which he is currently 95th.
If the Euro qualifiers for the Worlds goes ahead he has a chance to get in that way, but I am not sure if these qualifiers are going ahead.
I guess, that if he has work as a sparky, he may find it less risky than to travel, but it is a shame we wont get to know whether he could cut it or not
