Walsh, van der Voort and Pipe earn places at the Grand Slam of Darts the trio were the highest on their respective tables.

Wildcard Qualifier has now been reached for the event, which will be held on Friday November 4 at the K2 Centre in Crawley.

The Wildcard Qualifier, which has been open to all darts player to enter, will see two players win a place in next month’s William Hill Grand Slam of Darts at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall – giving them the chance to take on the biggest names in darts live on Sky Sports.

Previous Wildcard Qualifiers for the Grand Slam of Darts include Kevin McDine – who went on to reach the semi-finals of the inaugural Grand Slam of Darts in 2007.

Mark Walsh, Justin Pipe and Vincent van der Voort are the latest qualifiers for the William Hill Grand Slam of Darts. The trio are confirmed as the respective Order of Merit qualifiers for the Sky Sports-televised event, which will be played from November 12-20 at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall.

World number 12 Walsh has qualified to make his Grand Slam of Darts debut as the highest non-qualified player from the PDC Order of Merit, ahead of Colin Lloyd.

Pipe, meanwhile, is the Players Championship Order of Merit qualifier, with two PDC ProTour wins in the last month seeing him jump up to third place behind Gary Anderson and Paul Nicholson in the standings to win a second successive Grand Slam place.

Dutchman van der Voort qualifies as the 2011 European Order of Merit winner, having won a Players Championship in Vienna in May and also reached a final in Germany and three other quarter-finals in the 12 European-based events.

Van der Voort has played in all four previous Grand Slam of Darts events – notably losing to Anastasia Dobromyslova in the 2009 group stages of the event.

The final places in the William Hill Grand Slam of Darts will be confirmed this weekend, with the finalists from Friday’s PDC Unicorn World Youth Championship to join the Wildcard Qualifiers from the 256-player event to be held in Crawley on the same day.

The field for the Wildcard Qualifier includes former World Champions Dennis Priestley, Andy Fordham, Richie Burnett and Jelle Klaasen, as well as 1996 World Matchplay winner Peter Evison.

Kevin McDine, a semi-finalist in the 2007 Grand Slam of Darts after being a Wildcard Qualifier, is also competing alongside another former qualifier, Willenhall-based Chris Mason.

Tickets for the tournament continue to prove highly popular, with the opening night on Saturday November 12, Friday November 18 and Saturday’s evening session on November 19 having sold out.

Only Balcony tickets at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall remain for both sessions on Sunday November 13, Wednesday November 16, Thursday November 17, Saturday November 19′s afternoon session and the semi-finals and final on Sunday November 20.
