good afternoon ladies und gentlemen, first Chouffe down the hatch
Is there any multiple set format tournaments?
>>154606774The only set play tournaments in the PDC are the Worlds, Masters and Grand Prix and all of them are different formats.>Worlds: sets best of 5 legs>Masters: sets best of 3 legs>Grand Prix: sets best of 5 legs BUT you have to start and finish on a double
my favourite anglo OUT
Woodhouse on fire there, very little Wadey could have done about it.
>Huybrechts suddenly winning games again.Wonder if he really can climb back up the rankings, or if it's just a statistical blip.>>154607010Best Luke now top 20.
>>154607300>Wonder if he really can climb back up the rankings, or if it's just a statistical blip.He's doing really well in the ET qualifiers and winning games when he gets to them, I don't know how long he can sustain it though.Noncefinger through after Kimbo missed a dart to win 6-4.
it's time for autism
>>154607368Yeah he fucked that one away. That frustration dart after the first S7 while on 145 didn't do him any favours, either.>>154607424>Autism vs BauldismNot too long ago this would have been a total banger. Now it's just two awkward bald guys battling their downward trend.
>van Autism>>154607479>Now it's just two awkward bald guys battling their downward trend.Solidly mid-90s averages as well. Grim stuff.
I am enjoying the Cristo Reyes resurgence
Based Cristo.>With the exit of Wade and MvG, Josh Cock is now the highest ranked player remaining.Fucking hell.>>154607712If it was any other players, it would just have been a solid game. But with those two in their current shape, I just feel relieved that it was no shitshow.
>all those bustsHoly kek.
>that endingTop 10 darts shitposts
Good results so far
Shame Cock won, otherwise Sneedler would be the highest remaining seed now, at 18.
>>154608478De Decker will plummet come October. I honestly don't understand how he won the Grand Prix then completely fell apart after that match in the Slam versus Littler.
FEELTHEGURNEvening session:>Kevin Doets v Luke Woodhouse>Andrew Gilding v Rob Cross>Cristo Reyes v Josh Rock>Martin Schindler v Daryl GurneyYou know, maybe Mensur had a point about these tournaments being devalued without the big names in them.
>>154608185>>154608375That took longer than it had any right to. Curse the logo designers for those background circles.

Evening session bump
is woody's hair getting grey in real time?
BIG FISH
>112.31Absolutely ridiculous from Doets
kevin doets all over luke's woodhouse
Hope Doets wins the event, he could jump 4 frauds at once.

>>154611048do et, kevin
>Rob Cross resurgenceNobody wants this ffs
The World Cup lineup will be confirmed after tonight's final. Apparently Mansell IS eligible for the Republic of Ireland team.
Ahhh cristo
>Doets is literally the only good option remainingGrim stuff
how are the dutch so good at darts without being obese?
>Doets in the finalBased, now go beat whatever crawls out of the other semi.
BASED DOETS INTO A MAIDEN EURO TOUR FINAL!
>>154612530>>154613374hate us cuz they aint us
Doets v Rock final
big checkouts from both players to make the final, reckon it will be a good one
another angloid v Dvtch final, kevin got this
Doets would move to 30th with a win, Rock up a place to 7th in the Order of Merit. Latter could prove crucial for Rock if he's to avoid Littler at Blackpool.
>>154614055Anon, i..

>>154612777Checked. Also, it’s because they cycle everywhere. Mad for bikes over there, can’t move for bikes in Holland.

>>154614868Still incredible that Hopp does not turn 30 until August.
>Cock
his dooting et
bit late to hit this decent bit of form when the premier league is over
Bugger. Great match regardless, shame about the outcome. At least it wasn't Chin or Dross.
Damn. Well, good game.>>154615044Another young german talent rising to the top.

Good for Josh to push out all the talk that he is a has been ad should no be on telly.
And so Josh Rock claims a second European Tour title of his career with a superb 8-6 victory over Kevin Doets in Graz. A back-and-forth final saw both average 101 with just a single ton plus finish, but it was the biggest finish of the lot for Rocky with a vital 170. That big fish saw him break the Hawkeye throw to go 4-3 ahead and then held for 5-3 before two more holds made it 6-4. Doets clawed back the throw to level at 6-6, but a poor setup off from 121 onwards only gave him a single dart at tops to finish 80 which he missed and Rock instead pinned D12 last dart in hand to break again and held with a 14 darter to win.After having been eliminated from Premier League Play-Off contention on Thursday, this is some return for Northern Ireland's #1, even if he did benefit from a remarkable stroke of luck this afternoon as Niko Springer missed 2 darts and bust on the 3rd (after Josh had bust himself!) to eliminate him. For Kevin, two ranking titles in a week was too much for him to achieve but he will be a force in the coming months after some incredible displays over the past week. A good end to a slightly strange tournament that was a bit affected by the number of big names missing. But a Top 8 player did win overall, so maybe Mensur's point was a bit exaggerated.Players Championships on Tuesday & Wednesday before the Premier League hits Birmingham on Thursday.
