Van der Voort smashes Price, Menzies through to maiden European Tour Quarter-Final after easing past Lewis
PDCSunday, 01 September 2019 at 13:08
The first two Quarter-Finalists have been confirmed at the Austrian Darts Championship with Vincent van der Voort and Cameron Menzies through in Vienna after easing through.
Van der Voort smashed Gerwyn Price in a 6-1 win; it is a first victory for 'The Dutch Destroyer' against 'The Iceman' with a 103 average and 6/9 on the doubles in a near complete performance.
He went into a 3-1 lead averaging 105.6 and at one point, he was 5/5 on the doubles towards the end at 5-1 up. In the end, he missed a few doubles when he won the match but it still didn't affect a brilliant performance.
Menzies similarly was brilliant against Adrian Lewis also winning 6-2 to continue his brilliant run and reach a maiden European Tour Quarter-Final.
He had a great start to proceedings moving 2-1 up on Adrian Lewis with a 13 darter capping this off and he added to that with a 122 checkout on the bull.
He surged to a 4-1 lead with a 98 average and 4/7 on the doubles and despite Lewis hitting a 180, the Scot hit tops to go within a leg of victory.
Lewis stopped the rot but it was too much of a mountain to climb and in the end, Menzies claimed the victory with a 94 average and 50 percent on the doubles.

- Saying Littler failed at lakeside is a little harsh. He lost to Veenstra with a record 104 average.BandB05-12-2025
- Sophie v Paige warranted a final and deserved a longer format, despite the completely shambolic start to the match regarding the scoring which I think unnerved both players, it was an excellent game. Both are outstanding players with great futures in darts. It was a shame such talented players had to meet so early and that Paige is out, she is brilliant and blitzed Sophie in that first set. Fantastic comeback from Sophie, so calm and nonchalant, survived a real scare but hope she becomes World Champion.richieburnettrocks04-12-2025

- Oh fudge off. Who the hell decided Mardull was preferred choice. Just look as its idiotic face. What a talentless waste of space What a travesty when you compare what ITV had. He comes across as a jokey person but it's a class A piece of sheet, miserable as hell and completely full of himself. I don't know anyone who can say anything positive about this goof. Hopefully he'll meet Chris Mason in a dark alley. It really is paving over paradise.richieburnettrocks26-11-2025
- Needs to get the dart tip up when he pulls the dart back and his game will come back.BandB25-11-2025
- Absolutely disgraceful, really I've said many times that ITV coverage is superior to SKY and SKY know that. Jacqui was absolutely fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Emma from SKY is more interested in what to wear than learning about darts. Chris Mason is absolutely the best and greatest commentator on TV, even better than Alex Jacques on F1 and Alex is absolutely brilliant. It is criminal that Chris and Alan will probably never be on TV again, what an amazing waste of talent. Poor Ned, who is just as excellent and knowledgeable on darts as the Tour de France has lost both gigs this year. The whole ITV team from presentation, commentary, production the whole team will definitely be missed and I have enjoyed every minute of their coverage. Thank you so much. John Part is the ONLY decent and knowledgeable person on SKY. I liked Glenn Durrant the player but he is awkward and dreadful on commentary all the rest are utterly useless.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
- Gurney is off form and will completely crack and have a meltdown as the crowd will be relentless, although I think Beau will beat him anyway. I also think Fallon will beat the Helium voiced Chisnall. Poor Gemma has a toughie Peter Wright is also completely off the boil but will probably squeeze past Lisa. Ian White v Mervyn King is an old school classic.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
