PDC Europe: four Super League tickets decided today – Van den Herik wins ADC Global Championship

Darts today, 9 November 2026: four tickets for the PDC Europe Super League are decided in the play-offs. Van den Herik takes the ADC title 9:5 against Neil Duff.
Yesterday's matches
Jamai van den Herik has won the ADC Global Championship. On Sunday the Dutchman came through the Best of 17 final 9:5 against Neil Duff and succeeds defending champion Jack Tweddell. Van den Herik, who competes on the PDC Challenge Tour and the PDC Development Tour, had already secured a place at the upcoming PDC World Championship before this tournament.
Van den Herik won his quarter-final 7:5 against Kevin Lankhuizen and allowed Lewis Cook only two legs in his 8:2 semi-final. Duff reached the final with a 7:1 against Dan Nicholls and an 8:6 against Callum Francis. The ADC Global Championship is the main event of the Amateur Darts Circuit and was played as a straight knockout. All matches from the last 16 to the final fell on Sunday, so Northern Irishman Duff played four matches that day before going down 5:9 in the final.

What's on today
PDC Europe Start: play-offs for four Super League places
The focus is on PDC Europe: in the play-offs of the PDC Europe Start, the last four places are awarded from 19:00 for the HYLO PDC Europe Super League. Four ties are scheduled – Sebastian Stute against Rene Damm, Lukas Nußbaum against Maik Charras, Christian Gödl against Scheirer and Marcel Walpen against Rene Kern. The four winners complete the Super League field, whose group stage begins on Tuesday at the Halle 39 in Hildesheim. The groups have already been drawn.
Only players without a Tour Card are eligible in Hildesheim. Defending champion Arno Merk therefore cannot defend his title, because he now holds a Tour Card. The winner of the Super League receives a place at the PDC World Championship at Alexandra Palace – for the players from Germany, Austria and Switzerland it is the most direct route to London.
