Dimitri Van den Bergh has convincingly qualified for the last 16 of the European Darts Matchplay. 'The Dreammaker' was too strong for Ricardo Pietreczko in the second round, winning 6-3.
"However, I never felt in control of the match," Van den Bergh admitted afterwards. "That's because maybe I showed too much respect for Ricardo, after all, I know what he is capable of. But especially on my own legs I played well, that still gives confidence for the next round."
Van Duijvenbode
In that next round, Van den Bergh will take on Dirk van Duijvenbode. In the past, Van den Bergh won thirteen of his eighteen duels against the Dutchman. "But Dirk is currently one of the best players in the world, he shows his class every tournament again. He is a very hard worker, but so am I."
"I'm going to rest well now to be ready for that match and then I'm sure it will be a blast."

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
