PDC Tour Card
128 players are granted Tour Cards, which enables them to participate in all Players Championships events, the UK Open and qualifiers for all European Tour and select other televised events.
Tour cards
The 2021 Tour Cards are awarded to:
- (64) The top 64 players from the PDC Order of Merit after the 2021 World Championship.
- Harry Ward resigned his card, and therefore, Mark McGeeney moved into the top 64.[2]
- Kyle Anderson resigned his card, and therefore, Maik Kuivenhoven moved into the top 64.[3]
- (27) 27 qualifiers from 2020 Q-School not ranked in the top 64 of the PDC Order of Merit following the World Championship.
- (2) Two highest qualifiers from 2019 Challenge Tour (Callan Rydz and Jesús Noguera).
- (2) The highest qualifiers from 2019 Development Tour (Ryan Meikle and Ciarán Teehan).
- (2) Two highest qualifiers from 2020 Challenge Tour (David Evans and Ritchie Edhouse).
- (2) Two highest qualifiers from 2020 Development Tour (Keane Barry and Berry van Peer).
- (8) The daily winners from the 2021 Qualifying Schools.[4]
Afterwards, the playing field will be complemented by the highest qualified players from the Q-School Order of Merit until the maximum number of 128 Pro Tour Card players had been reached. In 2021, that means that a total of 21 additional players will qualify this way.
Q-School
The PDC Pro Tour Qualifying School (or Q-School) were split into a UK and European Q-School. Players that are not from Europe could choose which Q-School they wanted to compete in.
In a change from previous years, Q-School were split into two stages; with all players who lost their tour cards after the 2021 World Championship and the top sixteen players from the 2020 Challenge Tour and Development Tour Orders of Merit exempted to the final stage. The first stage would consist of two blocks of three days (with a maximum of 256 players per block) with the last four players from each block qualifying into the final stage. A ranking of other players will also be produced with players qualifying via that ranking to produce a full list of 128 players for each final stage.
Stage One took place in two blocks between 8–10 February & 11–13 February; with the Final Stage held between 14 and 17 February. The winner of each day's play were given a PDC Tour Card.
The UK Q-School was held at the Marshall Arena, Milton Keynes, England; with the European Q-School held at the H+ Hotel, Niedernhausen, Germany.[5]

An Order of Merit was also created for each Q School. For every win after the Last 64 the players will be awarded 1 point.
To complete the field of 128 Tour Card Holders, places will be allocated down the final Qualifying School Order of Merits in proportion to the number of participants,[6] with 13 cards going to the UK Q-School and 8 going to the European Q-School.
The following players picked up Tour Cards as a result:

Players Championships
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic still being active, Players Championship events were again put into blocks, this time of 4 events, as opposed to 5 in 2020, with the first 20 Players Championship events being referred to as PDC Super Series 1–5. The final 10 events were split into 3 Super Series events (6–8), with 4 events in Super Series 7 and 3 in Super Series 6 and 8.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic still being active, the Development Tour was split into UK and European events. The winner of each of the UK and European Orders of Merit at the end of 2021 received a PDC Tour Card and a place at the Grand Slam of Darts and the 2022 PDC World Darts Championship.[40]
As Bradley Brooks already qualified for the Grand Slam following his World Youth championship victory, the second placed player of the UK Development Tour, Nathan Rafferty, was granted the Grand Slam spot.[66]
The European Development Tour Winner, Rusty-Jake Rodriguez already qualified for the World Championship via Pro Tour Order of Merit, therefore the second placed player qualified instead. German player Fabian Schmutzler debuted in PDC darts tournaments at the seventh event of the European Development Tour, and qualified for the 2022 PDC World Darts Championship.[67]

The PDC Women's Series comprised 12 events held over two weekends. The woman who finishes top of the rankings and the runner-up after all 12 events will qualify for the 2022 PDC World Darts Championship.
Originally, the women who finished top of Events 5–8 and 9–12 were each going to qualify for the 2021 Grand Slam of Darts.[94]
However, due to a lack of entrants for the opening weekend in Niedernhausen, the first four events were cancelled and reintegrated into the two weekends held in the United Kingdom. So, instead the winners of Events 1–6 and Events 7–12 each received a spot at the Grand Slam of Darts.[95]
With three victories in five finals, Fallon Sherrock topped the Order of Merit after the first six events to book her Grand Slam entry.[96]
After the ninth event of the series on 23 October, it was confirmed that Sherrock and Ashton, the only players to have won events thus far, were guaranteed to top the order of merit and locked in their return to the World Championship.[97] Though Sherrock also topped the Event 7–12 Order of Merit, Ashton was granted the second Grand Slam spot as the highest ranked player not yet qualified.

The PDCNB tour returned in August with five events over three days in Iceland.[111] Latvian PDC Tour Card Holder Madars Razma topped the table after winning two of the five events. He was followed by Swedish tour card holder Daniel Larsson, Marko Kantele of Finland, and the Danish newcomer Andreas Toft Jørgensen, each of the three winning a single event of the tour.[110]
In addition to the three current and one former tour card holder on this ranking, the top three ranked Danish players gained entry via this method to the 2021 Nordic Darts Masters. They would ultimately be joined by Johan Engström to complete the field of eight local players.[112]
In October, it was decided that there would be no more tour dates, and that the PDC would grant two places in the world championship to the top players by ranking, Razma and Larsson.[113]

On 10 May 2021, it was announced that the CDC would hold a 2021 tour consisting of six events of a US tour over two blocks of three in the US in July and September, as there was still no guarantees of being able to have both American and Canadian players at the same event. A separate Canadian tour took place in August and October.[179] The final leader of both 2021 Tour rankings earned a place at the World Championships. The top eight players of both 2021 Tour rankings earned a place at the 2021 CDC Continental Cup on 20 November. Danny Lauby Jr. and John Norman Jnr won the USA and Canada titles respectively, and qualified for the 2022 PDC World Darts Championship.
