Jamai van den Herik and Jurjen van der Velde qualify for PDC World Darts Championship

Dutch players Jamai van den Herik and Jurjen van der Velde have secured qualification for the PDC World Darts Championship following the conclusion of the 2026 Development Tour.

Jamai van den Herik successfully earned both a Tour Card and a spot at Alexandra Palace. Despite a quarter-final exit in the final tournament of the season, his cumulative points in the Tour Card Race were sufficient to secure his professional status.

Jurjen van der Velde also qualified for the World Championship for the second consecutive year. His performance in the final stages of the tour, including reaching the final of the Development Tour 24, solidified his position. Other notable Dutch performances included Daan Bastiaansen, Shane de Jong, and Keanu van Velzen, who all reached the round of 16 during the final weekend of competition.
