Gabriel Clemens has set up a third round clash with defending champion Peter Wright after seeing off his fellow compatriot, Nico Kurz at the 2020/21 PDC World Darts Championship.
It was a 3-1 win and a classy display from Clemens who hit six 180's and a 95.7 average en route against the highly touted Kurz.
It was close to start the tie with Kurz missing one set dart at the bull in the deciding leg and Clemens punished on double 16 to head into the lead.
The lead though was cut with Kurz producing some astonishing finishing in the form of 160, 123 and 161 in an incredible spell to claim the second set 3-1 and go 1-1 in sets.
But Kurz failed to make his chances pay in the next set and Clemens was back on track with a 3-1 set win.
He went towards the finishing line from there with a good spell which included a 108 checkout and an 81 checkout for an 11-darter. He was one away but had to wait a bit longer with three missed match darts after hitting a fifth 180 and Kurz punished this time to stay alive.
But this was a mere consolation as Kurz missed a shot at 52 and Clemens returned for double 16 and the win.

- 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
