PDC Dutch Darts Championship schedule, Saturday afternoon session

Five of the seven Dutchmen converging on Maastricht departed in the opening round. Only Jeffrey de Graaf squeezed through to join Michael van Gerwen on Saturday. While local prospects for Dutch Darts Championship contention dwindle, there are plenty of players looking to extend their run and pick up prize money which could prove pivotal at this stage in the PDC season.
Steve West returns to the European Tour after a brief absence, and is even the 16th seed. On paper, that makes him the most vulnerable of the seeds, but Ricky Evans won't be expecting an easy game. Neither will Mervyn King, who faces the ever-improving Darius Labanauskas. Rowby-John Rodriguez put in one of the better performances on Friday. He'll need a repeat at the very least to match Dave Chisnall, whose form is sky-high at present.
Joe Cullen opens his Dutch Darts Championship campaign against Barrie Bates, who stunned Jelle Klaasen and the Maastricht crowd on Friday. Then follows the intriguing all-English clash between Darren Webster and Josh Payne, who knows a good run here could nail down a Grand Prix spot. Gerwyn Price's recovery from injury continues, so Darren Johnson may feel he has a strong chance.
That all comes before the first of the two remaining Dutchman comes to the fore. De Graaf almost fell by the wayside himself, before edging out Paul Nicholson. If he gives Stephen Bunting an inch, the Bullet is likely to take a mile. The last of the eight afternoon games sees Adrian Lewis, back among the seeds, taking on Wayne Jones.
