Nijman takes top spot in A Night At The Darts Week One, Van Barneveld claims final group win

This was claimed by Raymond van Barneveld who through virtue of a whitewash win over Martin Adams finished top of the standings ahead of David Evans on leg difference. RVB made his mark though earlier in the night with a vintage display.

This saw him hit a 108.9 average in a 5-0 whitewash win over Scott Mitchell where he breezed past him with 5/6 on the doubles as the doyen of Dutch darts started to really produce towards the end of his tenure.

The potential future of Dutch darts though in the form of Nijman produced again this week coming third on the night but claiming three group wins out of six to show what a talent he is.

He denied David Evans who once again showed his brilliance after his Icons of Darts League win last week as A Night At The Darts came to a thrilling conclusion.
