Tri still got this leg in his own hands oh now then Bullseye well he went for it didn’t need to but he just little bit north of the target yeah I was looking at other scores there but the setup play that’s a good sign of confidence there he’s the

Type of two Dart finishers these players will practice so much in the couple of hours before the game Big Dart already in this match so having gone for the bul he couldn’t tidy up can vanu in steel needs a treble can he squeeze one in above that Dart no he

Can so Danny van Tri will be breathing a s of relief but the hard bit still to do just squeezes it in there and that’s a sign when that happens you think is it my day just making sure everything is as they think it is it can be a help

Because that tension’s gone away 50 and then you think think if you’ve only wrote the right score there I’d have hit that yeah that was a long way off 90 then 15 is that a good marker 65 it looked hit but he couldn’t get it in so van TR

Gets another chance and you feel this has got to go and it does go first start so van Tri is now 43 up and Vann and after that first he now become a big favorite not only for this leg but for the match he had to break Danny to win

This match remember it’s in a tremendous position he broke him in the very first leg and we thought at that point it was going to be Serene progress but 105 to go in front can he do it in three oh he’s missed a big number well that was

Uncharacteristic you can look at the scoreboard with a little bit of Light Relief with Danny back on 190 60 an interesting all going low there for Danny maybe he’s just thinking his Chan has gone game shot van Gerwin at least six starts at this 130 he’ll want to put it away he’s

Got a chance for Bullseye 98 didn’t need to and didn’t all about getting the job done here I said it’s probably not been his prettiest performance of the season but it could well be a winning one and it’s exactly that it is a winning star for Michael V vanan solid

If not spectacular but the job well done there for Michael say You must be so nervous when you reach the final stages let me tell you the nerves are right now with these two players sensible nice layup 132 once he’s got down to a possible finish he’s been pretty good hasn’t he

Leton Bennett as you said he took out the 101 he wired Double 12 for a 144 and now he’s left himself double 16 72 but this is the side of the game for L just watching him behind mad there and isn’t he executing it boy did he enjoy

That it will start on the center of the board here will madz now then can he get it in oh bounced out it was the wrong side anyway but it was a good effort yeah tell your opponent it was in though put your hand on your head chance he Bennett options on

108 it’s double 16 76 that was a chance to hold throw is that going to be a pivotal moment in this game game yeah that difference Mark between 41 and 32 in the best of 11 and all of a sudden mad rasma is beginning to feel good about himself he’s already

Made a big story as Lon Bennett as well a 2019 B boys world champion and then the pressure that came with it you I remember him playing Phil Taylor and it was just this builtup exhibition and then it just seems to have gone away he certainly grown a few inches height as

Well and it’s lovely to see him come back and bounce back I mean all the headlines are being written by Luke ller right now will the headlines be written for Madar rasma from 3-0 down d a for the lead and he delivers this has been some

Burst a big treble not the treble five there you don’t fancy that that was enough 103 just play on treble 19 and bull eyes and you cracked it mad rasma 110 nice stayed there so it’s double 15 80 that’s not the first time he’s got the three D combo missed the double and

It could be costly we have to fancy this for rasma big number takes his time gets his breathing right eyes he’s on double 16 can he execute yes he can rasma leads 53 a little kiss off that second tungsten wasn’t it the champagne 132 what a way to win the

Match it’s what he does it’s double 16 and he’s hit the wrong double at least this time he’s not busted his score but you just felt he knew what he was going for the double 16 he did dwell we’ve seen that quite a lot today and

Bennett is not going to take out the 152 so mad rasma now this is interesting because he’s gone for double n twice missed it inside and bust his score hit double 14 is he going to split this he is going to split it double four is hit

Before to win the match one Dart left and he’s missed it didn’t he speed up with that throw as well I think was the right decision to go the 10 for leton Bennett is down and out in this match back with a chance and takes it that

Nasty nasty double three Leon Bennett is back in this game this has been ridiculous how many times he’s hit the 171 well Bennett’s going to try and follow him in here and this is not a bad response 133 well he’s given himself a chance rasma then for the match he needs

94 I like that route but the execution just didn’t meet that is he going to stay there it’s double 18 once again he takes his time 58 well that could have been the target the trible 18 route but 138 and this could go here oh this could go this to

Level up the match and he’s got it 138 what a shot that is from Bennett 55 a fist bump between the two and look at the response from Leon Bennett and the IR is there anything else that can happen in this match 135 forget about the last St a

Beautiful setup you’ve done your job Lon B Bennett now it’s big number double all mads can do is put pressure on well it was denied by the bounce out but now Bennett who was 3-0 up and then 53 down needs double 16 for the match one Dart remaining and one Dart is all

He needs and he leaps up in response Lon Benet that was a real high quality game Bennett raced into a 3-n lead then rasma hit back with with five on the spin and when all look lost Bennett climbed off the ropes to get the victory he will 6

As soon as you put himself in control of that game he’d be disappointed with that sansky trelis again9 1 32 then bull rout right still on not anym it’s not as AI 59 you feel that this 82 has got to disappear he will go for the ball two at dou

16 one left gets it and for the third time today on streaming board one we are level at 33 Styles make fights and this has been a fabulous game like I I think they both enjoy playing against each other the Rhythm and the pace of this match has been a real

Highlight now we’re coming to the real Bitter End now could take something like this he needs the treble 17 gets it 96 millimeters away can Clemens step in and hold his throw here 72 he needs he knows he’s getting air Dart the biggest start of this match

Game what a finish under that high pressured situation impressive from Clemens he’s putting the squeeze on zagy here who is now relying on Clemens missing well he’s going to leave it36 a one do finish but Clemens for the match needs 82 he’ll start on the ball it should be 15 but you’re tempted

To go over the 25 however he’s just looking at the score there of radic it’s double 10 72 matched up been and gone tops to take us to a decider and zansky takes it out and it’s 55 and again we see the fist bump ahead of a final leg deci

Like he’s left the door open so having missed a match dark Clemens is going to get another chance here to set up well that’s a lovely visit 61 another superb game nothing to separate these two players but it’s Clemens with a chance it’s double four 28 well radic will be ruined the

Fact that he hasn’t left a finish because Clemens has missed four match darts here the treble would be interesting well 120 is not the worst outshot in the world but K Clemens tidy it up this time well he gets there in the end it’s cool kman collected Clemens B ins sge

You can see exactly how he’s feeling in that Johnny Clayton also threw 61 as well yeah Martin luk went out as well as 65 Barton is looking good here there two Darts Away for a 3-2 lead and it would be the first real big statement for him 64 so 56 then tops Innings

10 gets there so it’s three on the spin for Bartons and he’s now in front for the first time this afternoon yeah and lovely hadit a couple of big trebles here why what he’s missed big numbers he doesn’t want to miss it with his first startart that’s clean as a

Whistle outside Chance eat lovely two data yeah all right let’s see where this first one goes right where he wanted it two at tops for par and that is a clinical finish two dark kill and we level at 44 super board man for these young players that’s so impressive and that is

Not impressive that is another big number he’s missed Bartons now lovely this to win it this would be a smash and grab and it’s on it is very much on ball eye oh the line was great but the length was just over the top still an awful lot

To pressure here game short pressure what pressure only feels a t wasn’t enough bons needs the treble to leave a shot at the bull’s eye and he hasn’t got it so lovely he’s going to get a look at 108 for the match so many options on 108 as

Well you can start the 20s the 19s the 18s anywhere you want and he’s found the treble it’s double 16 76 another match D missed Bartons for the game he’s going to get one at tops for the match and he misses a match start lovely can’t believe

It I don’t think Bartons could as well Thomas lovey has look the more composed out the two of them and what a cliffhanger and what a win for Thomas lovely the players do on 271 start in the 19s he would have hit that single 19 to

Leave a dart the bullseye to leave a finish and all of a sudden slav despite the fact he’s still shaking his head 180 and interestingly enough that 180 there from Dylan S he was the only player going into the today’s Players Championship five who hadn’t registered

A 180 going into his first game today hit a couple in the last match that 180 there’s put him in firm control of this leg double 16 game short D header started slowly against Wesley pleasa he’s go double double 57 chance for seven he likes that double 16 area can it be favorable

Again 16 the Miss Double a thong continues brco steps up for Tops and he pins it it’s another break of throw could be the end chance for Pesco to see out this match yep it has not been a classic as long as there’s a w next to the name doesn’t

Matter yeah he was definitely going for the treble that time 74 it’s been all just been like a little stop start from from both players I think Dylan will be extremely frustrated because when he throws that and that’s hence the shake of the head but over to the German for the

Match might be the most pointless scoring visit he’s ever thrown however Petco still has to tidy this up he still has to tidy this up and he doesn’t just didn’t have any confidence in that b Mor and he’s chat no away to himself Dylan seven would put his Darts Away

28 well it was a different Mo been going for 16s decided for Tops unfortunately for Dylan outcome for the match 15 that’s two visits in a row where Dylan Slevin has been ready to offer his hand to Petco pick your darts back up these unexpected chances you’ve got to take

Did you have any confidence of that going in I’m not even so sure with that Dylan did there and Ricardo has led a Charmed Life a shake of the head a scratch of the head that Ry smile big number first of all he won’t even have that much confidence of that

Going in but it’s double two and he gets there in the end it’s mission accomplished for Ricardo Pesco and 140 this has been very very high quality his fifth leg this last 64 generally is full of high quality some real top players producing some stunning performances can James We join that party he’s had a bit of a wobble in this match Uki open shamp is out yeah there’s another game that

You’re quite invested in Glenn it’s a Northeast battle between Chris Doby and Adam hunt and it’s three at piece come on Adam number 14 why is it well we both pointed our finger to our TV screen there cuz we assumed that was going to go in well

It’s certainly gone in for Peter Wright a lovely 65 finish Peter Wright moves into the the last 32 another one of them please what a finish y you see it more and more these days players will strive to leave a single to double there should be bread and butter should

36 outside chance then for Jeffrey bvan who’s got options treble 20 would have left 18 he was a long way off that reaction there Dan I think he fancied that was a bit of a Freeb well you can’t throw them any better no score can’t throw up worse I’ll let you tell him that afterwards chance for dvan can he lead for the first time yes he can sck with us 105 was marvelous on the setup player from 2011 last time 204 this time and

Once again 140 very competent that’s a little nasty chance for the Dutchman Dan yeah 40 scores 100 wait does event actually pick off treble 20 but may all be in vain Jeffrey dvan has got options dble eight he wants now double four and Jeffrey dvan sails through into round

Three yeah he he discovered a problem he had in his game and he’s rectified it you’ve got to give him an awful lot of credit 45 yeah that will frustrate then tiny errors can be punished for both of these players now these of course are both real potential winners

Today 91 leaves a lovely double there once again it was 87 in the first leg for Kalen rids one or three here these are the ti so one of them you feel have to go if you’re going to break Gary Anderson 21 scor quite a few of the Red’s darts are

Drifting leftwards at the minute that’s a beauty that’s a great check out from Callen Reds to shuffle across it’s always a big ask yeah there’s always that option a treble 18 isn’t on the 112 when you have a tough first start G doesn’t look very happy in

Himself right now 50 a bit of a shot to the system that he could be 4-1 down but fair play at the Reds game double break of throw for Callen ridz very outside chance note with Gary Anderson 10 perhaps it’s a bit more than an outside chance now Callen rids though

Has been muster on top so if he hits treble 19 he’s going to go a double double I don’t really blame him as well just remember that moment though 4-1 up and absolutely cruising in this leg and that’s an incredible turn around there from Gary Anderson 92 if you’re going to win a

Players Championship you don’t normally do a demolition job on sort of every player that you’re playing it’s been a funny old day so far for the pair of these two but I also sense that they can get into winning line of this match I will sense the can go all the way

140 may only be one at the ball 11 or treble leaves double 14 Gary Anderson is he Gary Anderson has been nowhere near in this eighth leg top of the board for Kalen rids now double 10 46 still got time but it’s an awkward double five rather than a more straightforward

Tops game shot he possibly could have had the th process of the two4 but that 140 there from Anderson just made him more direct and quite simply for Anderson hold break hold 180 well it’s unfair to say to win ugly with a a 97 plus average

139 well it’s Mark of how good he is double 16 to level the game right in the top Corner Beckham mque and we are going all the way and Callen rids probably can’t believe what he’s facing right now given that Anderson for his standards has been below par for quite a

Bit of the game looks like a man who knows his fate we’ve seen him take this already doesn’t need to go the bullseye route he’s got plenty of Joes popular way of going that treble 7even under one 121 s sentage job well done here for Gary Anderson it wasn’t Picture Perfect

Like most of his games have been of recent but he’s a dart away from Victory and victory is for Gary Anderson that was superb in the end Smith should come back to the board and he will do 58 double six then to level up at 1

One getting closer just has to move to his left hand side a touch oh dear he’s left double one yeah the first two two DS made that one really awkward he can only aim at the southern section of the double game shot Barney tied his up

Break of throw he gets 74 via tops when he almost got 74 in two dos and bust his score like you said heart was in the mouth there but here comes bully boy back with another maximum for him second in two legs but he’s 30-0 down 140 does play as darts these days

Raymond V baral like a man who’s completely at ease with himself Michael Smith doing the same here well is that EAS with himself because he’s six DS into a perfect leg are we about to see Perfection here in hildesheim 141 the target then it’s on treble 19 Double 12 for a

Nine do leg and he gets it bully boy Perfection here in hildesheim a nine D finish for him 31 Smith gets his first leg on the board and all of a sudden Michael Smith has hit the turbo boost the switch has been well and truly flicked 58 he’s another one of those players

That can just turbocharge have these bursts of form that leaves the ball’s eye 56 had to go for it Barney well he feel he needs this needs to stay there oh can’t quite hit the red bit 100 it was a good guide as well for the treble 20 Le to five

Wow perfect first start 180 there are certain visits where you see the first start Plumbing the treble 20 and you just almost know there’s going to be a 180 and he’s going to get a chance to break the throw again he is Smith hit the ball anyway but double 14 for a 4-2

Lead and Barney’s back on target may only be one at the bullseye the end of this 90 combination treble 20 leaves double 15 that’s wild that’s straight in two darts potentially away from parity here 180 well even that 180 seems foror because Michael Smith on an 11 daughter

Doesn’t need to use the Bulls ey 65 and he’s so good he’s hitting doubles when he doesn’t want them yeah if double 10 he’ll be happy enough about that oh bull bull remember I said before we turned up to an exhibition I think we have double 10 for parity o now then

They are a long way off the Target no score well I’m not sure you’ll see Michael Smith throw three darts at Double 10 that will land further away from the target than that that leaves 55 so single 15 to leave tops all 19 for double 18 games right choice Barney he is one

Leg away he’s broken Smith’s throw it is all of a sudden here he’s got a chance but that’s a great end to the visit isn’t it from Barney well Smith got the 141 earlier on he needs it again now and he can’t get it so Barney for the match needs

78 Tre 18 the first Port of Co Double 12 Raymond van barnaville completes a mightily impressive Victory against Michael Smith I’m set in the seat was the reason why you didn’t Happ the one game I didn’t sit here get the nine data typical the way these two are

Going at it you might get another chance quite shortly I wouldn’t worry too much Gary Anderson after nine he’s on he’s on 44 can leave one 120 score can leave one yes you can 145 he asked if he could leave one but the way Gary Anderson’s playing

Right now we’d probably check out on one 28 well I tell you what though Mark as much as we’re talking an awful lot about G Anderson pet right just going on with what he’s someone’s phone might have gone off or something smiling about it he’s on a 10 D leg

Here that was nearly in the wrong bed but that one isn’t an 11 D break of throw for Peter R 60 the big fish not going to go this time a well thrown 60 167 then for right to move within one it’s on just had a look there to check Bullseye for a

167 oh way wide in the end what a moment that could have been there for pet I was surpris surprised at the pause after the second out as much as we’ve talked about the Brilliance of Anderson he needs this double 15 that’s what he does what a finish

Match beautiful last start there from Peter right can I just add there to Leaf 36 it puts all the pressure on this 130 well they hit the bull’s eye but sadly not to win the leg 18 for right for a 5-3 lead dble n this could get tricky again

He just is he splitting this he is he’s gone two for dble eight and he doesn’t take it he turned down a d at Double nine will that cost him game I was about to say The Dread a double 10 but and the difference between now is it’s six starts for Gary Anderson

From 161 may use the ball with a last 65 well wrers made a blunder and how many times do we see this on a non-f finish they get the trouble with the opening D he’s still a chance here CU Gary Anderson needs 96 for the

Match he’s had the ups and downs in this game as Gary Anderson but when he needs it most he has been Supreme once again competition as well and how aggressive he was do you remember each time he won a leg a dart he was letting his opponent know with G when price

Raw 140 yeah his demeanor has really changed since then he he wouldn’t say boo to a goose before but he’s always up for crowd engagement he’s up for this 108 as well one dart at double 16 76 just sense it needed something in this match I mean his average is just nowhere

Near what Ross Smith has been doing recently 11 here for Bunton un ailable lead you would feel 3-0 at this early stage for Steven Bunton almost surprised at himself it’s very easy for me to sit here with a mic in my hand to do that

But just has to strip it right down and just take it each Dart as it is you know each leg but it’s difficult when you’re up there you’re just so frustrated so angry you feel like the game has gone and he has to tell himself it isn’t he’s

Back in this game 4-1 still still a decent opportunity has to be treble 17 that does leave the ball not a bad leave but Steven bunting with a chance now merely to hold the throw with 160 you’d have to feel it be a bit of a

Match point if this goes as well for Steven it’s not going to happen so Ross Smith without stating the obvious if he can hit this double 18 hold his throw in the next one all of a sudden we really have got match on from absolutely nowh you have to say

For Ross Smith he moved to the right M there I think it was the right decision odan just kissed off the barrel didn’t it to go into that five there chance for Smith 122 it’s a good setup but for a break of throw down now for double 10 35 inside on double

52 that could be the moment Ross Smith has been second best in this game but he did become favorite for a second there if he’d have took it a You’ have had the darts up nicely here at the conclusion of this match 140 oh Ross Smith knows

Now he knows he’s got bunting on the ropes probably should go to the 18s or the bull 145 well hit the big number first it’s double 16 his beloved double 16 biggest double today for Ross Smith and falls at the final hurdle will he be back chance for

Buon well he had to have a timeout halfway through this game but Steven bunting has still got it in him to reach the final of players Championship five there’s a big fish we know what this is Barney can’t quite reel it in bunting then for 104 yeah 16s has been the desired but

For Steven is he still pretty traditional on the 104 yes he is 12 for double 16 but misses the big number 72 well on fine margins Barney will need 18 for the ball now oh he was risky there Bullseye needs and he gets it well there might have

Been a bit of doubt about the second out but there was no doubt about that one the bullseye hit and he pounces on bunting’s error possibly feel six starts may be enough from 1 N1 yeah Sten just a little bit on edge it seems but this would calm him down

136 well that’s right in the middle and that’s not far away eight for a 136 12 couldn’t take it out all those box analogies that would have been a real knockout so options here that’s absolute perfection for his favor double 18 big Dart early in this match game shot solid as a

Rock Barney leads 3-0 in the early stages of this game and that bar is just a little minor slip there well that was surgical he weighed up the situation made his game plan and went and perfected it absolute Brilliance from bunting there yeah sometimes the moment can pass

You by and just a little bit of experience there from Steven just standing back and think come on I’m in this match this is a really important leg such a good first start he possibly wanted to go the tops tops route Barney then 86 got this in the opening leg and he’s

Looking to get it again and he will get it again well bunting’s layup play was magnificent but Barney that was absolutely outstanding four legs on the spin he was waiting for his friend to come back here him this time it’s Bunton that needs the fight and tenacity 47

Barney’s way back here so bunting will be back struggling to leave a finish that’s a good last start can bunting like 74 disappear 20 for Tops then tops he needs for his opening leg of the final game shot and he gets it bunting on the board yeah the

Self confidence for for Steven right now is probably the best it’s ever been felt he was better than me when he was a retired player and it’s not a joke he just that was what he what he stated and he came back and you’ve got to have the

Full admiration for him he’s uh producing the goods yeah well bonting is starting to hit some good numbers now Barney though he looking another one in there would be he went for the switch to leave double 16 it didn’t happen this will be useful is it tral 20 no he went for

Double 18 56 well that was a 71 finish I talked about in the first one for Barney and now it’s 68 these types of finishes win titles two darts Barney leads 5-1 you’d have to say that would be the cherry on the cake right now treble 17

Required you expected that to get hit this is a big finish for bonting as we talk about he’s thinking he’s getting a d a double it is only one Dart it’s tops big moments chance Barney bent the wire 19 for Tops single hit double hit this finishing is absolutely phenomenal 86 71

61 86 68 and now 59 he’s not giving bunting look at that six from seven 85.7% a dart’s throne of someone I think resigned to defeat or certainly to this leg Trel 17 for Barney he won’t Panic his opponents all the way back 79 even his set of players are going in now

Yeah well this is the first time he’s left himself a look at a One D finish buting those added a bit of pressure so cam barnavelt land double 16 he can he can this is an outstanding doubling performance it is quite frankly remarkable hope that Steven doesn’t

Check out in the 64 and he can lay up this 176 which he will do he’ll just sit it above that for his beloved 18 over to you Steven yeah 64 needed onear and it’ll be at double 16 to keep the match alive and he has missed it Barney for the title needs

Double 18 and Barney is that champion he has just put a Sublime performance in against the inform Steven Bunton always magnanimous and defeat is Steven but what a story what a day for the legend that is Raymond van barnavelt
