The
Bahrain Darts Masters will conclude on Friday evening with one bumper session at 4pm in the UK featuring the Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Final to crown the first World Series winner of the year.
All the big names involved made it through unscathed with the likes of Paul Lim, Yuki Yamada and Toru Suzuki as well as the Bahrain local qualifiers unable to dent any hopes of the leading names.
One player who nearly went out though was Dimitri van den Bergh against Alain Abiabi surviving a match dart, Michael Smith the new World Champion won't be so generous as he looks to star the new darting season as he ended the last one in the winners' circle.
Then it is another round of Raymond van Barneveld as the doyen of Dutch darts faces Luke Humphries in a tie which could be the best in the Quarter-Final line-up if both are on form. While Peter Wright will look to regain his form missing a slew of darts at doubles during his win over Suzuki, he will now face Rob Cross.
Before a Quarter-Final clash between two close friends and another Welsh derby as Gerwyn Price faces Jonny Clayton. They go in bracket order so the winners face each other in the semi-finals then the final will be confirmed.
