The 2022 World Cup of Darts has began in Frankfurt with Republic of Ireland, Denmark and New Zealand the first countries through to the second round.
Steve Lennon & William O’Connor as 2019 finalists were facing a potentially tough test in Canada’s duo of Jeff Smith and Matt Campbell but eased through in a 5-2 victory.
As a pairing, they were clinical on the doubles with 5/12 hit by the well versed duo which included an 83 checkout on the bull from O’Connor which saw them take control.
Denmark, who came in with Vladimir Andersen and Andreas Toft-Jorgensen, saw off Singapore's Paul Lim and Harith Lim. The Asians could not keep up with the Danes in terms of scoring and lost 5-2.
Ben Robb and Warren Parry won after a very mediocre match with 5-3 from Stefan Bellmont and Thomas Junghans from Switzerland. Especially the doubles proved to be a problem for both countries. Switzerland wasted eighteen darts on the doubles, against sixteen for New Zealand.

- 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
