2009 UK Open
The 2009 Blue Square UK Open was the seventh year of the PDC darts tournament where, following numerous regional qualifying heats throughout Britain, players competed in a single elimination tournament to be crowned champion. The tournament was held at the Reebok Stadium in Bolton, England, between 4–7 June 2009 and has the nickname, "the FA Cup of darts" as a random draw is staged after each round until the final. Phil Taylor won the title for the third time by defeating Colin Osborne 11–6 in the final. 2009 UK Open Regional FinalsThere were eight regional final events staged between January and May 2009 to determine the UK Open Order of Merit Table. The tournament winners were:
Format and qualifiersThe tournament features 129 players. As in previous years, eight regional UK Open events were staged across the UK where players winning are collated into the UK Open Order Of Merit. The top 96 players and ties in the list, who played a minimum of three events received a place at the final stages.[1]
The Holsten qualifiers and the players outside the top 32 of the UK Open Order of Merit began the tournament on the Thursday night. They played down to 32 players, and they were joined by the top 32 of the UK Open Order of Merit the following night, to provide the competition's last 64. A random draw was made after each subsequent round.
32 players were due to have qualified from four Holsten Pils qualifiers held in Aylesbury, Batley, Birmingham and Salford. However, Peter Green had to withdraw for unknown reasons, thus meaning there were only 31 qualifiers present in Bolton.[2]
Prize money
In addition, Holsten offered a £3,000 bonus to the Pub Qualifier to get the furthest into the tournament (shared by Ken Mather and Andy Roberts). DrawThe draw for the preliminary, first and second rounds was made on 25 May, ahead of the 2009 Premier League Darts play-offs by Sid Waddell and Keith Deller.[2] Preliminary roundThis match was the best of eleven legs, and was played on 4 June.
