Gilding shocks Hopp and Ratajski produces comeback to see off Van der Voort at German Darts Championship
NewsFriday, 31 August 2018 at 16:29
The final two first round clashes in the afternoon session of the German Darts Championship have been completed. Andrew Gilding completed a shock win over Max Hopp and Krzysztof Ratajski came from behind to defeat Vincent Van der Voort.
Gilding first of all claimed a 6-2 win over Hopp, a home favourite and a seed from next week in Maastricht. He averaged 91 as he aims to avoid Q-School in January.
Ratajski was 4-1 down to Van der Voort but reeled off 5 straight legs to see off the Dutch Destroyer. The Polish Eagle hasn’t been in destructive form himself on the European Tour this year but will hope to put a good run together this weekend.

- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
