Magnificent Martin Schindler through to first career European Tour final

Martin Schindler has reached the final at the International Darts Open with a 7-3 victory over Chris Dobey. This puts 'The Wall' in the final of a tournament on the European Tour for the first time in his career.
Schindler has twice before been in the semifinals at a Euro Tour tournament. A year ago, he also reached the last four at the International Darts Open, but then lost 7-4 to Michael van Gerwen. Earlier this month, Schindler was in the semifinals of the German Darts Grand Prix, and then it went wrong again against Van Gerwen (7-2).
This time the German was quickly heading for his first final. Dobey could not repeat his good play from earlier in the tournament and saw the first five legs all go to Schindler.
For a moment Dobey could still hope for a comeback when he got the score to 5-2, but then he did not take advantage of a chance given to him by Schindler. A 16-darter put 'The Wall' up 6-2 before the German talent finished it off with an 11-darter in the tenth leg.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- 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
