Ono defeated three players competed in June's Japan Darts Masters on his way to victory, seeing off Katsuya Aiba and Shintaro Inoue before overcoming Yuki Yamada with a 6-0 whitewash in the final.

Germany's Rene Eidams was the winner of the German qualifier, as he edged out Maik Langendorf 10-8 in their final to earn his first appearance in a major championship.
Eidams, a qualifier for the 2014 German Darts Championship in his only previous appearance on the European Tour, edged through the group phase on leg difference following a 6-1 win over Sascha Stein, and also defeated Ricardo Pietreczko in the seim-finals.
Groen, meanwhile, followed up his PDC Unicorn Development Tour win in October by qualifying for his World Championship debut at the Central Europe Qualifier on Sunday.

Austria's Michael Rasztovits defeated Croatian ace Boris Krcmar 10-7 in the final of the Eastern Europe Qualifier in Eisenstadt.
