European Tour Order of Merit Update: Gary Anderson passes Van Gerwen and Littler after retaining title

Originally posted on Dartsnews.com | Last updated May 5, 2025 12:00 AM ET

Gary Anderson has moved up to fourth position on the European Tour Order of Merit after winning the European Darts Grand Prix. Based on countback, the Scot is above Michael van Gerwen and Luke Littler.

Anderson took the top prize of 30,000 pounds last weekend in Sindelfingen after victories over Gian van Veen (6-5), Rob Cross (6-3), Martin Lukeman (6-5), Dirk van Duijvenbode (7-2) and Andrew Gilding (8-0). At 38,5000 pounds, the two-time world champion only has to beat Martin Schindler (54,500 pounds), Nathan Aspinall (42,000 pounds) and Ross Smith (40,500 pounds) in the rankings.

Van Gerwen and Littler, like Anderson, stand at 38,500 pounds, while Stephen Bunting follows in seventh place with 36,000 pounds. This is followed by a gap to Ryan Joyce (£27,750), before Dirk van Duijvenbode and Gian van Veen complete the top-10 with £23,500. Mike de Decker is currently in 11th place.

The European Tour will consist of 14 tournaments in 2025. At the end of the season, the 32 best players on the European Tour Order of Merit will be invited to compete in the European Darts Championship in Dortmund.
