Zoran Lerchbacher (born 30 May 1972) is an Austrian darts player from Graz, Austria currently playing in the Professional Darts Corporation.

Career

Lerchbacher qualified for the 2014 PDC World Darts Championship and won 4–1 in the preliminary round against Ben Ward.[1] He then went out in a 3–0 loss to Michael van Gerwen.[2] Lerchbacher was able to score a slightly higher average than Van Gerwen,[2] but was only able to win one leg in the match.[1][2] He entered Q School to try and win a tour card to compete on the PDC tour and lost in the final round of the fourth day 5–1 to Joe Murnan.[3] Nevertheless, Lerchbacher had done enough to finish tied second on the Q School Order of Merit to seal his place on the PDC for 2014 and 2015.[4] He had a disappointing first year on tour as his deepest runs were three last 64 defeats.[5]

In 2015 Lerchbacher, attempted to qualify for six European Tour events and was successful at the final attempt in the European Darts Matchplay, but lost 6–1 to Darren Johnson.[6] After his tour card expired Lerchbacher again entered Q School, but one last 32 exit over the four days was not enough to stay on tour.[7]
