After Lukas Wenig and Dragutin Horvat won through in the
afternoon session, there has been more Host Nation winners on the opening night
of the German Darts Championship.
Max Hopp, Gabriel Clemens
and Nico Kurz, three of Germany’s top players all claimed victories to delight
the crowd in Halle 39.
Clemens began and despite
not producing his best, he eased to a 6-1 win over Steve West with his doubling
proving pivotal. The latter only hit 1/5 while ‘The German Giant’ finished on
46% (6/13). This was despite only an average of 89.

difficult with the top German prospect reeling off five consecutive legs from 4-1
down to defeat Jason Lowe 6-4 with 75% on the doubles in a high quality affair.
The former averaged 97.5 while in defeat, Lowe was at 100 with two 180’s.
Hopp concluded the trio of
wins with the former World Youth Champion and European Tour winner delighting
the crowd with a 6-2 win with four 180’s en route against Reece Robinson. It
was a high checkout of 118 for ‘The Maximiser’ who now has Ian White next up.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
