Kleermaker came through a tight tussle with Boris Krcmar with the Croatian leading 2-1 in the tie but the Dutchman kept with him and had a great last leg to deny the three time soft-tip champion the chance of a Tour Card on Day One.
He was a favourite of a lot of people before Q-School began to claim a Tour Card due to his prowess on the BDO Tour and he will aim to deliver at the very first attempt.
For Kleermaker though is a relative unknown who has stormed his way through the field to the final in Harald Leitinger.
The Austrian is known as a former soft tip player and he has played in one Pro Tour in 2011 as well as a European Tour qualifying event two years ago. He defeated Brian Raman to keep up his good run.
