The 2011 PDC Pro Tour was a series of non-televised darts tournaments organised by the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC). They were the Professional Dart Players Association (PDPA) Players Championships and the UK Open Qualifiers. This year there were 39 PDC Pro Tour events – 31 Players Championships and 8 UK Open Qualifiers.

Prize money

Prize money for each Players Championship and UK Open Qualifier increased from £31,200 in 2010 to £34,600 in 2011.

Stage Players Championships
and UK Open Qualifiers
Second round £200
Third round £400
Fourth round £600
Quarter-finals £1,000
Semi-finals £2,000
Final £3,000
Winner £6,000

In addition, £400 per Pro Tour event was reserved for a nine-dart finish. Should this not be won in an event, it was carried over to the next event, and so on until a nine-dart finish was achieved. Once the prize fund was won, it reverted to £400 for the next event.

PDC Pro Tour Card

From 2011, the PDC Pro Tour operates a Tour Card system. 128 players are granted Tour Cards, which enables them to participate in all Players Championships and UK Open Qualifiers.
