I wonder if the likes of JoMo will be entering Ilkley or focus on the wild card play offs?

Lambda · Challenger qualifying

I don't think we'll be seeing JoMo over here. His plans were to stay in Knoxville and work on the long list of post match notes he had made on his phone of things to improve. He also wanted to experience the heat of Tennessee before going out on the circuit.

I see Andy is out of qualies for Queens and Liam ditto for Ilkley - both showing withdrawn on Darts

Is this because they know they will be in their respective main draws as wild cards or are they actually with drawing?

Andy has a wildcard if he needs it and withdrew before todays match.

Interestingly Peniston and Choinski have entered challengers in week one of Wimbledon so they are not expecting wildcards?

Or just precautionary as it isnt certain theyd get one or get through qualies?

With Liam out of qualies for Ilkley (does he have a MD WC or has he withdrawn?) we have no British men in the MD or QD for singles, which is a real shame. I guess we will get the full quota of wild cards in both though. And just Luke J in the doubles as it stands.

I love Ilkley but because of its calendar position, for Brits, (with Queens, Birmingham, WC Play offs against it) the British entry is the thinnest of the British events. Next seasons calendar, from a purely Ilkley perspective, helps that a lot. Realise other events are - or arent - available in 2025

Any they give some opportunities to some of the younger players who have been making inroads in the last week or so? Im sure Mimi played there last year. Henry?

Quite possibly those are where the wild cards will go to, that type of player. It will need to be players not in Queens qualies (as they cant play two events - and Henry might get a Queens QWC?) ; or Birmingham qualies (which may impact one or two talented younget players) or not in the Wild Card Play offs (which will possibly impact?). So Ilkley always ends up being a bit of a GB hotch potch!
