In Van de Pas' first career PDC major quarter-final he was beaten 10–5 by Daryl Gurney.

Wins over Max Hopp and Dimitri van den Bergh saw Van de Pas play in the third round of the World Championship for the second successive year and, just like last year, he was unable to pick up a set in a 4–0 defeat this time to Michael Smith.
