Dimitri van den Bergh and Gerwyn Price have easily made it to the last eight at the Australian Darts Masters in Wollongong. 'The Dreammaker' did not need to excel to push aside Jeremy Fagg 6-1.
Van den Bergh could even afford quite a few misses on the doubles. At 6/23, he recorded a finishing percentage of only 26 percent. Fagg's finishing percentage was even lower at 14 percent.
In the first leg, a lot of doubles were already missed. Van den Bergh missed six chances to keep his own leg, after which Fagg struck with his sixth break opportunity. Fagg then missed one chance to cash in on his break, after which Van den Bergh tied the match at 1-1 with a 13-darter. The Belgian then needed five chances to break his Australian opponent, but a 19-darter made it 2-1 for Van den Bergh. The reigning UK Open champion then moved up a level, hitting a 92 finish and a 16-darter to make it 4-1. With another 16-darter and a 15-darter, Van den Bergh then managed to close out the match.
Following Van den Bergh, Gerwyn Price also secured a spot in the quarterfinals of the Australian Darts Masters. The world number six started the World Series tournament with a 6-2 victory over Brenton Lloyd. Price came out with a respectable performance. He posted a 95 average and a 46 percent finish percentage. After the first three legs of the match went with the darts, Price posted a break in the fourth leg with a 17-darter for a 3-1 lead.
The Welshman then threw a 15-darter to lead 4-1. Lloyd then threw a 17-darter to cut the deficit to 4-2 before Price decided the match in his favor with two 13-darters.

- 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

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
