Lithuanian ace Darius Labanauskas swept aside the field on home turf at the latest PDC Nordic & Baltic Pro Tour events.
Labanauskas chalked up successive victories in Pro Tour Events 3 and 4 at the Panorama Hotel in Vilnius. His double success comes in addition to winning the fourth Nordic & Baltic European Tour qualifier in the same weekend.
His first Pro Tour win of the season began with a bye. Then followed a 6-2 defeat of Oskar Lukasiak, and a 6-4 win over Steen Lysen. The fourth seed then beat fellow Lithuanian Mindaugas Barauskas 6-2, repeating the feat in the semi-finals against Danish veteran Per Laursen. Cor Dekker put up a fight, but the 2017 Lakeside quarter-finalist recorded a 6-5 win.
Pro Tour 4 started with a 6-2 success against Nicolai Rasmussen. Mauri Tuutijarvi and Madars Razma were brushed aside, before Labanauskas notched up a 6-3 win over Magnus Caris. Once again, it took all 11 legs for the Kaunas thrower to take the title. Daniel Larsson saw him off to take the Pro Tour 2 crown, but Labanauskas served up revenge in Vilnius.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
