Eight more names need to be confirmed for the last sixteen at the German Darts Open. On Saturday night, the final eight matches from the second round are scheduled, with some big names set to be in action.
We start off with two Dutchmen, as the opening match is between Dirk van Duijvenbode and Roy van de Griendt. Next up is two-time world champion Peter Wright in action against Cameron Menzies, before Damon Heta takes on Florian Hempel.
Luke Humphries will battle Ricardo Pietreczko, while Dave Chisnall begins his tournament against Luke Woodhouse. A clash against World Matchplay champion Nathan Aspinall is scheduled for Gian van Veen. Martin Schindler plays against Daryl Gurney, and the final match of the evening is between Ross Smith and Wesley Plaisier.
This year, the Euro Tour tournaments will be broadcast by Viaplay for the first time. The afternoon sessions start at 1300 local time, 1200 BST, while the evening sessions start at 1900 local time, 1800 BST
Furthermore, the European Darts Matchplay for British darts fans can be seen via PDCTV. A subscription is required to access this live stream.
During each Euro Tour tournament, £175,000 in prize money is distributed. All qualifiers are guaranteed £1,250, while the top 16 players on the placement list at the German Darts Open will receive £2,500 anyway. However, these 16 players must win their first game in the second round for the prize money to actually count toward the world rankings and other rankings.
