UK Open Qualifiers 2012
The 2012 UK Open Qualifiers were a series of qualifying tournaments in darts. They consisted of eight qualifying rounds in the run-up to the UK Open 2012 , which were held over four weekends. 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 2012.
The UK Open Qualifiers were also part of the PDC Pro Tour 2012 .
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.
