The first Quarter-Final at the German Darts Grand Prix is set with Michael Smith set to face Keane Barry this evening in Munich after two contrasting displays to open proceedings.
Smith faced off against Gerwyn Price in a game highly billed due to their prowess in particular 'The Iceman' given his recent European Tour form, but it was 'Bully Boy' who produced an utterly sensational display.
It was a statement as he won 6-2 with a 108 average, five 180's and two ton plus checkouts in 121 and 106 with four in total back-to-back. Utterly sublime from Smith.
While Barry similarly was sublime but in a comeback against Berry van Peer who froze when it mattered most missing six match darts after going 5-1 up against the Irishman.
Going for his first European Tour Quarter-Final, he couldn't fall over the line and 'Dynamite' blew away his chances in a 6-5 win. Now he is into his first Quarter-Final but a tough battle awaits against Smith.

- 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
