Gerwyn Price and Dirk van Duijvenbode have continued their respective form by reaching the third round at the International Darts Open in Riesa.
Price who won the title last week by seeing off Van Duijvenbode produced a 104 average and a checkout percentage of 60% as he saw off the European Champion, Ross Smith in a 6-3 win. It was a first win too over 'Smudger' since 2015 as he hunts for back-to-back European Tour titles.
While after being left distraught after missing match darts last weekend, Van Duijvenbode will aim to bounce back and started out with a 6-3 win over home hero Gabriel Clemens.
Van Duijvenbode quickly silenced the whistling from the German audience by taking a 5-1 lead with a 70 check-out, 119 finish and two 13-darters.
However, two sloppy legs by the Dutchman allowed Clemens to come back to 5-3, but then Van Duijvenbode was back on track and started the ninth leg with a 180. With a 15-darter, Van Duijvenbode eventually decided the game.

- 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
