Josh Rock continues to impress and has moved into the Quarter-Finals of the Hungarian Darts Trophy in some style in Budapest punishing Dirk van Duijvenbode to seal a superb win.
Van Duijvenbode missed six match darts against the Northern Irishman and was punished to the hilt as Rock piled in a 126 checkout on the bull to seal it before letting out a ferocious roar.
Rock took a 2-0 lead thanks to a 140 checkout and a 14-darter, however Van Duijvenbode returned to the foray with an 11-darter and two 13-darters to give himself a 5-4 lead after making it 2-2 previously.
But having his first chances to seal it, he missed five match darts and Rock forced a deciding leg and despite a solid start from the Dutchman, he missed one match dart on double 16 from 70 before Rock sealed it.
He will now play Dave Chisnall in the Quarter-Finals who added a rare win over Boris Krcmar who had the better of their head-to-head record but will now have to go on a run in Belgium to secure his European Championship spot.
After a leg full of missed darts at doubles, Chisnall took a break at 3-2 before cementing it with a 102 checkout and in a pivotal moment, he pinned a 170 checkout.
Another flourish saw him seal it 6-3 with a 121 checkout and the St Helens ace will be one of the favourites now to add another European Tour title if he can get past the unstoppable Northern Irishman.

- 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

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
