HUGHES WINS! WOW! What a deciding leg of darts that was as Jamie Hughes fires in an 11-dart break to snatch a 6-5 victory over Dave Chisnall! 📺Up next 👉 Ratajski v West
Hughes and West come through deciding leg thrillers to begin marathon opening session at European Championship
PDCThursday, 29 October 2020 at 17:26
The opening session of the European Championship which sees 16 First Round ties has began with both of the ties so far going the maximum number of legs with Jamie Hughes and Steve West through.
Hughes to start proceedings snatched his tie against Dave Chisnall hitting back-to-back 180's and an 81 checkout which was an 11-darter to defeat the St Helens ace who many predicted could go on a run this weekend due to his current form. But it is the Tipton ace who is through.
Another player to dispel one of the potential favourites was West who saw off Krzysztof Ratajski in an impressive display which once again went all the way. He hit five 180's and 60% on the doubles.
It was a tie though that could have gone either way with it going 11 legs and 11 holds with 'Simply' squeezing through to the second round.

- 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

- He used this kind of anger as motivation to get past this round. Next round he will revert to his usual form. 90 or below ave and a defeat.medinabello23-12-2024
- Once again Madhouse bottles it just like last year v Graf. Not sure why he's been brilliant all year. Definite similarities between this year and last though. He has to sort it out.medinabello23-12-2024
