The opening day of action is complete at the International Darts Open with Raymond van Barneveld, Ross Smith and Gabriel Clemens finding their way through to Saturday's line-up in Riesa.
Van Barneveld had a late call-up to this weekend's European Tour due to withdrawals and took it to his advantage with a 6-3 win with a high checkout of 157 en route. He will now face Martin Schindler tomorrow.
While Clemens produced an epic comeback to end the night and delight the home crowd. After being on the end of one last week to Ian White, he came from 5-2 down to edge past Simon Whitlock 6-5 who was left shell shocked by 'The German Giant'.
This either side of a victory for Ross Smith who saw off Paavo Myller who impressed on his European Tour debut but fell 6-3 with five 180's for 'Smudger'.

- 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
