Meet the World Cup of Darts 2019 teams: Belgium and Austria

We are paying attention to Belgium and Austria, two of the seeded teams in Germany. Both nations have been part of the World Cup of Darts since the inaugural event in 2010.

Kim Huybrechts is one of the best players in the history of the World Cup of Darts. He's part of the Belgian team since 2012 and never lost before the quarter-finals. He reached the final in 2013 with his brother Ronny Huybrechts, where they suffered a 3-1 defeat to England.
'The Hurricane' also teamed up with Ronny in the next four years and reached one quarter-final and three consecutive semi-finals. Dimitri van den Bergh took Ronny's place in 2018 and also moved into the semi-finals with Kim Huybrechts.
