A trio of players lead the way after Night Six of Premier League Darts action and the start of the second block in Milton Keynes.
Those are Dimitri van den Bergh, Nathan Aspinall and Michael Van Gerwen who took another step closer albeit at an early stage still to the playoffs.
Van den Bergh saw off Jonny Clayton 7-3 with a 102 average to hit the front early on in the night. The latter now slides down to fourth as a result of being on seven points after setting pace early on.
Aspinall produced the performance of the night averaging over 105 in seeing off Peter Wright 7-3 while an under par Van Gerwen eased past winless Glen Durrant who sits bottom.
Gary Anderson follows Clayton after victory over Rob Cross while Jose de Sousa is just behind after collecting his second win as both players escape the drop zone for now.
With one spot seemingly left to be decided though, it’s all to play for with Peter Wright, Rob Cross and James Wade following 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
