Kleermaker moves up to seventh position on BDO ranking after successful weekend in Wales

The BDO rankings have been updated after the latest double header of action which saw the BDO Welsh Open and Classic take place in Prestatyn this past weekend.

Martijn Kleermaker alongside Mario Vandenbogaerde (11th) have both been two of the standout players on the BDO Tour this year alongside the main two in Wesley Harms and Richard Veenstra.
Kleermaker added to his title haul this past weekend in claiming his first Category A+ title in the form of the Welsh Open to move into this position and with a few more good runs could find himself at least in the top five.
Parletti who also claimed glory this weekend by winning the Welsh Classic has also moved up to third to continue his good season with the top two remaining unchanged.
Of some of the bigger names in the standings, Martin Adams sits 18th, Scott Waites 14th, Darryl Fitton 33rd and also Leighton Bennett, the current BDO World Youth Champion at only 13 years old sits in 39th.
This shows how good he is that he continues to mix it with the best that the BDO has to offer in both the Youth side and Men's competitions.
