HUGE WIN FOR WATTIMENA! He's on the brink of the Last 16, beating Leonard Gates 5-1! That means that Damon Heta will need to beat Jonny Clayton 5-0 to secure his qualification! #GSOD | R1 📺 bit.ly/GSOD22Live
Wattimena joins Clayton in Last 16 at Grand Slam of Darts despite Heta ending with a win

Jermaine Wattimena has joined Jonny Clayton in sealing spots in the Last 16 at the Grand Slam of Darts from Group F despite Damon Heta ending the unbeaten run of 'The Ferret' albeit only in a consolation win.
The permutations before tonight in this group were that Clayton had already qualified and Leonard Gates needed to win 5-3 or better to move above Wattimena and Heta had to lose.
But a win for 'Machine Gun' would send Heta needing to win by a bigger margin to qualify with a win and the Dutchman sealed the best possible margin of victory.
Starting off the night, he eased past Leonard Gates in a 5-1 win taking out 108 to seal it and put one foot in the Last 16.
This meant that Heta needed to win by 5-0 to move through which meant that when Clayton levelled at 1-1, it sent Wattimena through and left the game null and void in the context of the group as 'The Heat' went on to seal it 5-2.

- If he went on the Seniors tour surely he would mop up the titles?Mysstree26-11-2024
- I'll miss Steve Thank you for all the memories and great matches. I was there when he (luckily) won the 96 World Championship, I expected him to win and perfom better in the PDC than he did as he moved over so early when he still had good form. Looks great for 60, today's players should take note !! Sure he was a driving instructor when in the BDO. A cool guy, very friendly and interesting to chat with.No theatrics on stage, just got on and played darts Sign him up SKY !!!richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- I agree. With the number of tournaments these days?, Phil could probably earn £2 million a year if still playing. I can't believe Chisnall has earned over half a million for being so inept, he barely gets past the first round, stealing a living. That's outrageous.richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- As prize money increases each year and there are now more tournaments then logically breaking the £2 million barrier is going to happen, only thing preventing it is the now deeper strength in depth of the darting field. If you took Taylor’s best two consecutive years and substituted the prize money from now onto the tournaments he won he would have passed the £2 million.Mysstree26-11-2024
- Only Gary Anderson in MVG’s quarter who should really trouble him assuming he wins his first two games. If he can’t get out of that quarter of the draw he will be hard pushed to win another World Title.Mysstree26-11-2024
