Robert Thornton and Kevin Burness have joined Martin Adams in the final group on Week One of the MODUS Online Live League.
Phase Two has began in the tournament and Burness who was a multiple victor in the final first time around continues to show his class. He once again won all five games on Friday and finished top of the group.
In doing so, he saw off Thornton (4-2), Matthew Dennant (4-1), Jamie Kelling (4-0), Richie Burnett (4-1) and Diogo Portela (4-3).
Thornton himself came second in the group with twelve points and kept Dennant out by leg difference.
While Kelling (eight points), Burnett (six points) and Portela (two points) did not come close to a place for the final group.
In the evening sessions, Arron Monk, James Richardson, Chas Barstow, Colin Monk and Scott Marsh play against each other twice. Also in this group there are two places available for Saturday. Martin Adams already qualified for this final group by winning the first group of this week.
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.
