UK Open Qualifiers 2007/08
The 2007/08 UK Open Qualifiers were a series of qualifying tournaments in darts. They consisted of eight qualifying rounds leading up to the UK Open 2008 . The results there were recorded in a separate ranking list, the UK Open Order of Merit . The best of this ranking after the eight tournaments were automatically qualified for the UK Open in early June 2008.
The UK Open Qualifiers were also part of the PDC Pro Tour 2007 and 2008 .
Importance of qualifying tournaments
In each of the eight qualifiers, the players received prize money based on their results, which were then used in the UK Open rankings. At the end of the eight qualifiers there was a ranking of all players, according to which the participants and the seeding list for the final UK Open were determined.
Prize money
The prize money increased by £ 5,400 compared to the previous season. It was distributed as follows:
| round | UK Open Qualifiers |
|---|---|
| victory | £ 6,000 |
| final | £ 3,000 |
