PDC-wereldranglijst voorafgaand aan World Matchplay: Van Gerwen verliest derde plaats aan Smith

Michael van Gerwen heeft na de Players Championship-toernooien van de afgelopen dagen zijn derde plek op de wereldranglijst verloren aan Michael Smith.

Dat betekent dat Van Gerwen als vierde geplaatst is op de World Matchplay, dat van 16 tot en met 24 juli plaatsvindt in Blackpool. Sinds 2013 behoorde Mighty Mike altijd tot de top drie geplaatste spelers op dit toernooi. Peter Wright voert de plaatsingslijst aan op de World Matchplay, terwijl Gerwyn Price het tweede reekshoofd is.

In de top-10 was er nog een andere wijziging. Jonny Clayton passeerde Dimitri van den Bergh en is nu de nummer acht van de wereld. Brendan Dolan nam de 23ste plek over van landgenoot Daryl Gurney na het winnen van een Players Championship-titel in Barnsley.

Adrian Lewis, één van de andere winnaars in Barnsley, maakte ook progressie. Hij heeft de 39ste plaats ingeruild voor de 35ste positie.
