Results Last 32, Players Championship Eight: Van Barneveld, Whitlock & Lewis through to Last 16
NewsSunday, 08 April 2018 at 15:45
There will be a new 2018 Pro Tour winner at Players Championship Eight in Barnsley. Gary Anderson is the final player to bow out who has one this year. This has given a big opportunity to a host of players to either add to their haul of titles or win their very first.
Simon Whitlock, Raymond van Barneveld and Adrian Lewis remain involved with Lewis of course reaching the final yesterday. Whitlock's prowess on the floor is very well known and he will hope to add another Players Championship title to his collection.
'Barney' has not won a title in quite a number of years despite his legendary status in the world of darts and this is the best opportunity for him to do so after some poor draws the past two days have blighted his progress thus far.
The only other Premier League player barring Whitlock and Van Barneveld still involved is Gerwyn Price who knocked out Danny Noppert. The likes of Max Hopp, Ricky Evans and Toni Alcinas who are in the bottom half of the draw will see today as a perfect opportunity to claim a title.
Mickey Mansell has had a great day so far and he is also through to the Last 16 as is Ryan Joyce who has had a great year so far on the Pro Tour and might claim the title later on today.

- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- 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
