Jermaine Wattimena missed an excellent opportunity to eliminate Jonny Clayton at the Hungarian Darts Trophy. After missed match darts, 'The Machine Gun' lost after a deciding leg.
The first eight legs of the match all went with the darts. That series came to an end in the ninth leg after Clayton missed three darts on double 12. Wattimena broke him with a 56 finish and then started the tenth leg. The darter from Westervoort missed six matchdarts to decide the match. Clayton equalized and then took the deciding leg with a 114 finish.
Dave Chisnall, the number one seed in Budapest, made no mistake against Scott Mitchell. 'Chizzy,' who won two Euro Tour tournaments earlier this season, defeated 'Scotty Dog' 6-2.

- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- It happens. Remember, anyone who has watched German and Dutch players in matches - their respective countries will have seen/heard just as bad jeering (if not worse). Taylor and MVG are two prime examples of professionals who are able to cope with the crowds mentally and not take it personally. This is not just an English crowd problem, FFS.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- Was watching an old World Masters final the other day between Eric Bristow and John Lowe, the crowd respect for both players on throw was first class, not a sound. You can imagine now the idiots who were whistling on De Deckers throw proudly boasting about it on social media. I blame the PDC to a certain extent though doubt they really care as they win regardless of which player wins or loses.Mysstree16-11-2024
- @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
