Darts: Sixth Set

[Carlos J]

Dimi played dreadfully last night, doubles about 16% but still beat Anderson.

He's arrived now

Hope RM is enjoying this Dimi run wherever he is.

[Rowntree]

A four-day series of Players Championship events get underway tomorrow in Germany. Quite a few players have pulled out due to the difficulty of actually getting there and back without it being a massive ballache. Top names who HAVE travelled include Nathan Aspinall, Dave Chisnall (someone must have helped him with the forms), Rob Cross, Jose de Sousa, Krzysztof Ratajski, Michael Smith, Raymond Van Barneveld, Dimitri Van den Bergh, Michael Van Gerwen and Simon Whitlock. Those not competing include Gerwyn Price, Peter Wright, James Wade, Gary Anderson, Glen Durrant, Joe Cullen and Jonny Clayton.

Good chance for some debut winners.

[Holden Mcgroyne]

Lost every game and didn't average above 90 in any. Looks a long way back for Duzza from here.

[Rowntree]

Two debutants in the final. No idea who will win it.

EDIT: CLAYTON TAKES THE TITLE

[Holden Mcgroyne]

Premier league debutants get to the final at 46 and 47 years old. Durrant won it last year at 49.

Wade, who it seems has been around for ever is 38.

[Rowntree]

I'm 47.....

There is still a sniff.....
