A 2024 Tour Card is needed to compete in Professional Darts Corporation ProTour tournaments.
In total 128 players are granted Tour Cards, which enables them to participate in all Players Championships and European Tour Qualifiers.
Most Tour Cards are valid for 2 years. The top 64 in the PDC Order of Merit all receive Tour Cards automatically, and those who won a two-year card in 2023 still have a valid card for 2024. The top two players from the 2023 Challenge Tour and Development Tour received cards automatically. The remaining places were awarded at the 2024 Q-Schools, with the final four days of competition awarding one Tour Card per day from both the UK & European Q-Schools; with the remaining players being ranked and the top players also receiving Tour Cards. All players who won a card at either Q-School have their Order of Merit ranking reset to zero. [1] [2]
Corey Cadby's Tour Card, which he won at the 2023 Q-School, was removed as he had not competed in a single ProTour event since winning it. [3]
