Richard Veenstra has secured a place in the last sixteen at the International Darts Open in Riesa. 'Flyers' recorded a handsome victory over Dave Chisnall, who was the number one seed at this tournament.
Veenstra managed to grab a 2-0 lead early in the match after two good legs, but Chisnall returned to 2-2. The Dutchman recaptured the lead with a 14-darter, then made it 4-2 with a 76 finish. Veenstra then held his own leg with a 17-darter, before taking the final score to 6-2 with a 15-darter.
Earlier in the evening, Ricardo Pietreczko brought joy to the German crowd by defeating James Wade. The German was still trailing 4-5 after nine legs, but managed to make it 5-5 with a fine 81 finish while Wade was waiting on tops. The deciding leg then went to Pietreczko with a 14-darter.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
