2025 PDC Challenge Tour series
The 2025 PDC Challenge Tour (known for sponsorship reasons as the Winmau Challenge Tour) was a series of non-televised darts tournaments organised by the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC). A secondary tour to the PDC Pro Tour, it consisted of 24 tournaments, held over four weekends of five events and one weekend of four events.
The Challenge Tour is the PDC's second-tier system for players who competed at the 2025 Qualifying Schools but did not win a PDC Tour Card.[1] Under PDC Order of Merit Rule 4.2,[2] the Challenge Tour Order of Merit rankings were used to top up Players Championship (PC) events up to 128 entries, when any of the 2025 Tour Card holders not enter the PC tournaments.
Under PDC Order of Merit Rule 6.9, the 2025 Challenge Tour prizes were as follows:
- The top two players on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, who had not obtained a PDC Tour Card via another method, won a two-year Tour Card for the 2026 and 2027 seasons.
- The top three players on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, who had not qualified via another method, qualified for places at the 2026 PDC World Championship.
- The highest ranked player on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, Stefan Bellmont, received a spot at the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts.
- The players in the top 16 of the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, who had not obtained a PDC Tour Card before 2026 Qualifying School (Q–School), were granted free entry to the final stage of Q–School.
- The eight highest ranked players from the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, who did not earn a Tour Card for the 2026 season, qualified for the first round of the 2026 UK Open.
Prize money
The prize money for the Challenge Tour events remained the same as in 2023 and 2024. £360,000 was the total prize fund, with £15,000 being the prize fund for each of the 24 events. The winner of each event received £2,500. The prize fund breakdown was:[3]
| Stage (no. of players) | Prize money (Total: £15,000) | |
|---|---|---|
| Winner | (1) | £2,500 |
| Runner-up | (1) | £1,000 |
| Semi-finalists | (2) | £750 |
| Quarter-finalists | (4) | £500 |
| Last 16 | (8) | £300 |
| Last 32 | (16) | £200 |
| Last 64 | (32) | £75 |
The top players on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit act as reserves for 2025 PDC Players Championship series events. If one of the Tour Card holders does not enter or withdraws from a Players Championship event, the highest ranked available player on the Challenge Tour Order of Merit may fill in.[3][4]
