Sam Spivey captures third weekly title in tenth season of MODUS Super Series
MODUS
The third week of play in the tenth season of the MODUS Super Series fell to Sam Spivey. He was the best on Saturday night during the final night of this week of play.
The six best players from the past week met Saturday on the final night. Spivey was in Group B and managed to win his two matches against Ronan McDonagh (4-2) and Charlie Large (4-2). McDonagh advanced to the semifinals as number two after a 4-1 win over Large. In the other pool, all players managed to win once. Alexander Masek won 4-0 over Conan Whitehead, after which Masek did lose 4-2 to Sneyd. Whitehead in turn picked up a win against Sneyd (4-3), but Whitehead was eliminated on the basis of a lesser leg balance. 'The Barbarian' had a leg balance of -3, while his competitors Masek (+2) and Sneyd (+1) both had a positive leg balance from the pool stage.
In the first semifinal, McDonagh proved too strong for Masek 4-3, while Spivey made it to the final match with a 4-3 win over Sneyd. Thus McDonagh and Spivey faced each other for the second time on the night, but once again it was Spivey who prevailed. The final was won 4-1 by Spivey, who is the third weekly winner of this cycle after Alec Small and Jenson Walker.

- Beau also skipped Players Championships 7 & 8 next week, and PC 3 & 4 four weeks ago. If she next chooses to miss the Women's Series and PC 13 & 14 in mid-April then we can make a fair guess as to her reason.Scoobedybop13-03-2025
- I've commented before,Phil should let us all remember how great he was,and leave your darts in the drawer. Another humiliation will tarnish everything,you couldn't even beat old blokes who you would have beaten before the game started !!rick6712-03-2025

- Aspinall was a no-show: Carl Sneyd steps in from the Challenge Tour.Scoobedybop11-03-2025
- Likewise, I have always been a fan of Mervyn and with this worry on his mind, it explains why his form and ranking plummeted. It is really sad to hear this, often chatted to Mervyn and Tracey during the Lakeside days, both are lovely people. It does seem naive not acknowledging the fact it was earnings, surely there must be others in the same situation. I really hope the Kings can get through this....would a go fund me be permittedrichieburnettrocks11-03-2025
- I always like Merv,but he does he seems slightly naive with his comments. I wish you all the best, hope you can get sorted,and try and get back to a decent game,a bit of money.....and get rid of the dogs,if that's your main concern,I believe your priorities may be slightly wrongrick6710-03-2025
- What’s with the dogs element to this story, trying to pull at the heart strings? Just goes to show that being a good dart player does not equate to being that bright. Seriously, ‘I thought you didn’t have to pay tax on winnings’ , your a pro dart player and its your line of work, your not playing the lottery or placing a bet. I think it was Phil Taylor who said you should put a third to one side of all winnings into a bank account, obviously Merv was wearing his earplugs at the time.Mysstree10-03-2025
- The thing is... the folks who "humiliated" Taylor in the Seniors Events never really achieved anything in the important events - like Taylor did. Taylor had/has nothing to prove... and beating Taylor after he had retired is of zero value. Taylor in his prime would have made easy work of all of them. Cheers.MrYnyslas197107-03-2025
- Taylor was humiliated in the seniors events,so he really has nothing to lose by playing littler. I think he should put his darts away,and let us remember what a great player he wasrick6706-03-2025
- actually, since you're asking... yes. yes i do.colt06-03-2025
