Jermaine Wattimena was no match for Luke Littler in the second round of the Flanders Darts Trophy on Saturday night. Wattimena played a fine match, but Littler was in a class of his own with an average of 111.
After five legs, Wattimena was averaging 110 himself, but was looking at a 4-1 deficit. Before that, the 17-year-old Littler had thrown two 14-darters and a 12-darter, among other things. In between, Wattimena threw a 107 checkout for a 12-darter. In the sixth leg, Wattimena missed five chances to make it 2-4, after which Littler punished these misses hard with a 105 finish. Wattimena did not recover from that blow. Littler thundered on and put a 13-darter to make it 6-1.
Luke Humphries has made a successful return to the Euro Tour. Saturday night, the reigning world champion won 6-3 over Ritchie Edhouse in the second round of the Flanders Darts Trophy. For Humphries, it was his first appearance since the World Series in Down Under. Afterward, Humphries went on holiday to Turkey with his family. On his comeback, Humphries threw an average of 100.66 and a strong finishing percentage of 60 percent.
The first seven legs of the match all went with the darts. Then Humphries threw out 60 for the break and a 5-3 lead. The Englishman was then allowed to throw for the match and did not fail. With a 14-darter, the world number one took the win.
Ricardo Pietreczko will also be back in the third round of the Euro Tour tournament in Antwerp on Sunday. The German, last year's surprising winner of the German Darts Championship, triumphed 6-5 against Andrew Gilding. Pietreczko gained a 4-3 lead after an early 0-2 deficit, and two breaks in a row then made it 5-4 for the German. Gilding then forced a leg-decider with a 25 finish. The final leg was then victorious for Pietreczko with a 16-darter.

- Even the Hearns and the PDC have had to kowtow to the DEI brigade or lose sponsorship, the DEI activist base may be small but is very vocal and being cancelled is bad for business and profit. There is a glimmer of hope though as folk do now seem to be pushing back especially as Starmergeddon is waking a lot more people up.Mysstree12-09-2024
- It seems odd that at the World Championship they have dancing ladies in hot pants and pom poms and yet the walk on ladies who were much more elegantly attired get removed from the scene. I met Daniella at Silverstone when she was a grid girl in the F1 race and was very pleasant indeed. It is a massive shame when you lose the ability to earn or be in the public eye due to bullsheet politics.richieburnettrocks12-09-2024
