Danish Darts Open prize money
The PDC has paid £275k across the two editions of the Danish Darts Open we hold, from 2018 to 2019. The 2019 pot was £140,000 between 48 players, the European Tour weekend at the Brøndbyhallen outside Copenhagen, and Dave Chisnall took £25,000 of it.
A darts player is paid once, for where the run ended, so every pound of a pot lands on exactly one player and the two pots below add up to the £275,000 the field has shared. Mensur Suljović has taken more out of the Danish Darts Open than anyone else: £28,000 from two appearances. Both were played at Brøndbyhallen, Copenhagen.

The two editions we hold, and what each one paid
| EDITION | CHAMPION | PLAYERS | THE POT | WINNING IT |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | Dave Chisnall | 48 | £140,000 | £25,000 |
| 2018 | Mensur Suljović | 48 | £135,000 | £25,000 |

The pot, season by season
season running total
The prize fund has gone from £135,000 in 2018 to £140,000 in 2019, which is £5,000 more and 4% up. Winning it has moved with it, from £25,000 to £25,000, and the champion's share of the pot has gone from 19% to 18%. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches £275,000.
What each finishing place pays
The seven bands at the 2019 Danish Darts Open
Nothing here stacks. A player who lost in the semi-finals collected £6,500 and not that plus every band beneath it, which is why the seven bands come to £140,000 rather than to the £52,500 a ladder reading would put on the champion alone. The 2019 rate card has the players in each band and what the band paid out.
