Kevin Burness leads the Online Darts Live League after the second day of action with a slim lead over Conor Heneghan going into Wednesday.
Burness sits on 16 points with eight victories and two defeats ahead of 14 for Heneghan (seven wins and three defeats) to set up a quality conclusion. Robert Owen is two points behind rounding out the top three.
This after a near unbeaten day for 'Iron Man' who saw off Conor Heneghan (4-3), Lee Cocks (4-1), Kevin McDine (4-1) and Ryan Hogarth (4-3). His only defeat came to Robert Owen (4-2).
Until Wednesday, each player plays once a day against the other players in the group. The winner of this group goes directly to the final group on Saturday.
The numbers two and three of the ranking will play a new group against three new players on Thursday evening and Friday evening. This is Mark Dudbridge, Chas Barstow and Tony O'Shea.
The numbers five and six of the ranking on Wednesday will also play a new group against new participants. Scott Williams, George Killington and Arron Monk are the entrants in this group. They will be in action on Thursday afternoon and Friday afternoon. From the evening group, three players go to the final group and from the morning group too, so that the final group consists of six players.
Unlike the first edition of the Modus League in 2020, the game will not be played online via a webcam connection, but at a location in Southampton, England. The matches can be followed via the Online Darts YouTube channel .
