Andrew Gilding dumps Van den Bergh out of home tournament before Peter Wright and Joe Cullen complete 2nd round field at Flanders Darts Trophy

Dimitri van den Bergh has been eliminated in the first round of the 2024 Flanders Darts Trophy this Friday evening. 'The Dreammaker' had to acknowledge his superiority to 'Goldfinger' Andrew Gilding.

It was another disappointing performance for Van den Bergh in his home country. At the four previous Euro Tours in Belgium, Van den Bergh never made it to the third round, and again he failed to do so.

Peter Wright escaped elimination against Brendan Dolan. After leading 2-4, Wright fell behind 5-4 against his Northern Irish opponent. However, with a 74 checkout, Wright forced a final leg. Wright then concluded the match in fine fashion with a 12-darter.

Joe Cullen managed to win the final match of the first round. 'The Rockstar' fell behind 2-3 against his English compatriot Callan Rydz, but still managed to win the match 6-4.
