Martin Schindler started his participation in the German Darts Open in Jena on Saturday evening with a 6-3 victory over Dutchman Danny van Trijp.
The German saw Van Trijp come back to 3-3 after a 3-1 lead, but then Schindler made the difference with a 14-darter, 90 finish and a 13-darter. Especially the finishes were going well for 'The Wall', who recorded a 46 percent checkout percentage.
''When the scores don't fall right, you have to make sure the finishes are right. Fortunately that was the case", Schindler said after his match against Van Trijp.
Schindler plays Gerwyn Price in the last 16. The last three encounters, all on television, were won by the Welshman. Schindler remembers that well too. "If I look at our past, there are still one or two accounts to settle. In that respect, the battle is on.''

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
