Wesley Plaisier and Josh Rock reach final of Players Championship 28
PDCWednesday, 16 October 2024 at 19:33
Josh Rock and Wesley Plaisier have advanced to the final of Players Championship. The Englishman and the Dutchman will compete for the title later Wednesday night in Wigan.
Plaisier reached his third Players Championship final of the season by dealing with compatriot Danny Noppert in the semifinals. Plaisier has not won a PDC ranking title before.
The Dutchman took a 3-1 lead in his match against Noppert via an 11-darter and a 15-darter, but then saw three legs in a row go to Noppert. However, Plaisier turned the 3-4 deficit back into a 6-4 lead and eventually won 7-4 thanks to a 14-darter in leg twelve.
Dirk van Duijvenbode had the chance to force a Dutch final, but failed in this mission against Rock. 'Aubergenius' showed resilience by getting to a 6-5 lead after falling behind 2-5, but then could not strike in the last two legs. The win went 7-6 to Rock.
It will also be his third Players Championship final of the year for Rock, although he already managed to win one in 2024. In addition, Rock also wrote a Euro Tour title to his name.
A total of 125,000 pounds in prize money is distributed at each Players Championship tournament. The winner of the event will receive a check for 15,000 pounds.

- They are both legends and should be celebrated and have brought darts to where it is now. A statue should be put in Kirkcaldy for Jocky. The town has changed a lot.ListerAnderson16-10-2024
- He is a legend and should be rightfully celebrated.medinabello16-10-2024
- I would not change the format of any of the ranking events to make them double start. Grand Prix is unique and should stay that way.Mysstree15-10-2024
- Given how exciting this Grand Prix was, is there an argument that more top tournaments should have the double-start double-finish format? As a darts fan, I love to see lesser-known players excelling on the world stage and going deep into tournaments.
UndartedWaters15-10-2024 - A tremendous final and a deserving winner in The Real Deal Mike de Decker. And Luke Humphies, despite disappointment, put up a feisty resistance and showed his class in defeat. Darts is in a great place!UndartedWaters14-10-2024
