The first round continues at Players Championship Finals, with Chris Dobey the main winner so far in Minehead. He saw off Raymond van Barneveld in the second game on the main stage.
It was only a 90 average for Dobey as he prevailed in a 6-3 win over the five-time World Champion. But he took advantage of poor doubling hitting 6/18 compared to only 3/14 from the Dutch legend.

It was close early on, but Dobey took the impetus with an 88 checkout for a 12-darter to break and go 4-2 up. He went one away from there with a 71 checkout. But Van Barneveld remained in the tie for a leg longer with a 63 outshot, only for Dobey to seal the deal next time around at 6-3.
Matt Campbell started Main Stage proceedings and he recovered from 5-3 down to deny Irish talent, Dylan Slevin. It was a 6-5 win for the Canadian who sealed it with a 139 checkout en route.
While over on Stage Two, it was drama as Kevin Doets survived four missed match darts to down Jose de Sousa in a deciding leg to seal the opening win. It was Double Dutch delight as Maik Kuivenhoven dumped out one of the best players usually on the ProTour in Krzysztof Ratajski 6-4 with four 180's along the way.

- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
