STEVE BEATON, Stephen Bunting and Kyle Anderson were among eight players to secure a European Tour qualification double in Wigan on Friday.
A total of four qualifying events took place for the German Darts Grand Prix (ET3), which will take place in Munich from April 20-22, and the German Darts Open (ET4), which will be held in Saarbrucken from April 26-28.
Ever-consistent Beaton kept up his record of qualifying for every European Tour event of 2019, while world number 18 Bunting and Australia's Anderson were joined by Chris Dobey, Brendan Dolan and Jamie Hughes in progressing from both UK Qualifying events.
It was a perfect day for rising star Ted Evetts, who hit a nine-dart finish on his way to a qualifying double, while Ritchie Edhouse also landed a perfect leg on a high-quality day of action.
Germany's Gabriel Clemens was the only player to qualify from both West & South Europe Tour Card Holder Qualifying events for the third and fourth European Tour events of the year.
Glen Durrant hit three successive ton-plus averages, including an incredible 110.7, on his way to securing qualification for the Munich event where he will be joined in his second PDC appearance on the continent by Alan Norris, who is set to return to European Tour action for the first time in over a year.
UK Open Champion Nathan Aspinall was among the UK Qualifiers for Saarbrucken along with fellow-Premier League Contenders John Henderson and Luke Humphries.
German crowd favourite Martin Schindler will make his first European Tour appearance of the campaign at the German Darts Grand Prix along with former European Tour winner Kim Huybrechts.
Five-time World Champion Raymond van Barneveld will make his second European Tour appearance of the year at the German Darts Open, where Premier League Contenders Dimitri Van den Bergh and Jeffrey de Zwaan will also feature.
Two UK Qualifiers will produce 18 players each for ET3 and ET4, while the two West & South Europe Tour Card Holder Qualifiers will produce six players each for ET3 and ET4.
The UK Qualifiers are made up of PDC Tour Card Holders who have not already qualified for the events, along with the top 32 UK players from the Challenge Tour Order of Merit, with the West & South Europe Tour Card Holder Qualifiers made up of West and South European Tour Card Holders.
Both the German Darts Grand Prix and German Darts Open will be shown on PDCTV-HD.
