Dimitri van den Bergh claims comeback Chisnall win at World Grand Prix
PDCThursday, 10 October 2024 at 23:55
The Quarter-Final line-up is confirmed at the World Grand Prix with Dimitri van den Bergh set to face off against Joe Cullen after another comeback win this time for 'The Dreammaker'.
Van den Bergh sealed it 3-1 to dispatch the sixth seed who some had as ever as an outside shout for this week in Leicester but now sets up an interesting dynamic with the winner then facing Mike de Decker or James Wade for a spot in the final.
All blown wide open by the demise of Michael van Gerwen in particular, it is a big chance now for a player like Van den Bergh to take the tournament by the scruff of the neck.

Van den Bergh in truth wasn't at the races to start the game and this was very much evident as Chisnall romped to the opening set 3-1 punishing just 20% on the outer ring from the Belgian ace.
But he woke up in the second hitting back to claim the second without reply to square it up with both players averaging 81. It went up towards the 89 mark but neither were really at the top of their game.
It could've gone the distance though in the final set of the match. Chisnall went 2-1 up with a 12-darter and looked to be heading towards a deciding set. But Van den Bergh after initially not getting off steadied the ship and hit a 72 checkout to head towards the brink.
He then hit a timely 180 to put himself way ahead on the Chisnall throw. He missed 57 to seal the deal but had six more at it at least with Chisnall not on a finish and he sealed it finally with the St Helens ace finally breathing down his neck. In the process, he averted the potential for another set on the stage in Leicester.
