Van Duijvenbode set to face Clemens in final of Players Championship 1`8

The final is set at Players Championship 18 and it will see Dirk van Duijvenbode take on Gabriel Clemens shortly for the latest ProTour title.

For Van Duijvenbode, it would be a third PDC ranking title and the second of the season after winning in PC12 against Ryan Searle with also a final defeat coming during the last set of tournaments in Niedernhausen.

In Clemens, it is a player who still does not have a PDC ranking title to his name despite getting so close in the past and always being in and around the latter stages. He survived match darts against Nathan Aspinall, while for 'The Titan' he saw off Adrian Lewis 7-4 with a 102 average - with a good day for 'Jackpot' likely confirming his Blackpool spot.
