Superb Smith whitewashes Gurney, Meikle through in close shave against Ratajski

Michael Smith and Ryan Meikle are the latest players through to the Last 16 at the Hungarian Darts Trophy in Budapest after seeing off Daryl Gurney and Krzysztof Ratajski respectively on Saturday afternoon.
Smith was facing Gurney after the latter's storming 105 average yesterday to ease past Nathan Rafferty but he couldn't reproduce against 'Bully Boy' who eased through in a whitewash win.
He saw Gurney miss ten darts at double in an out of sorts display with Smith able to pick up the pieces sat at 50% overall throughout the tie.
While Meikle survived a close shave as he edged past Krzysztof Ratajski in a crucial 6-4 win over the Polish Number One who continues his poor run of form on the European Tour at the expense of The Barber.
It is crucial as it could see him seal a spot in the European Championship this weekend as he currently sits in the provisional places with only a few events to go and could yet go further.

- 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
