Van Duijvenbode adds himself to exclusive group at World Championship
PDCThursday, 07 January 2021 at 06:30
Dirk van Duijvenbode as well as producing another stellar run at the 2021 PDC World Darts Championship also added himself to an exclusive group at the showpiece event.
That group is players who have hit two 170 finishes at the same PDC World Darts Championship.
Former World Matchplay winner Peter Evison was the first to do it in 1997 and it wasn't done again for 13 years with Phil Taylor and Simon Whitlock doing it in the same year in 2010.
Gary Anderson was next up in 2016 followed by Michael van Gerwen in 2017. The feat from there wasn't achieved again until 2021 so a gap of four years between atttempts.

- 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
