Vincent van der Voort, Christian Bunse and Dietmar Burger are the latest three players through to the second round at the Austrian Darts Championship.
Van der Voort saw off Justin Pipe who has been in good form as of late with a 6-4 win having hit a brilliant 100 checkout to claim the win with two double 20's. He now sets up a second round tie with Simon Whitlock in Vienna which will be hotly anticipated.
Bunse had it a lot more tougher than Van der Voort, he was 5-2 up and seemingly cruising towards the victory but Jermaine Wattimena came back.
He made it 5-5 and had one match dart to claim the win but fluffed his lines allowing the German ace to claim a first European Tour win.
Dietmar Burger also claimed a first win seeing off Norwegian ace Cor Dekker in a 6-3 win. He hit 6/7 on his doubles in thrilling his home crowd in a 6-3 win. Next up for him is Dave Chisnall though as he will look to continue his run in Vienna.
