LIAM DOUBLES UP! Liam Maendl-Lawrance completes a dream weekend in Switzerland by winning his second title in as many days in the Helvetia Open. The German teenager recorded checkouts of 105 and 111 and an average of 92.65 in a 5-3 final victory over Marcel Walpen.
Maendl-Lawrance doubles up with second WDF tournament win in Switzerland

Following his title at the WDF Swiss Open, Liam Maendl-Lawrence also won the WDF Helvetia Open on Sunday.
The German successively defeated Andreas Kumpan (4-2), Jankidar Malla (4-0), Nico Schunke (4-0), Barry Copeland (4-2), Hannes Schnier (4-2), Alexander Merkx (4-2) and Marcel Walpen (5-3) to claim the title in Switzerland.
The 19-year-old Maendl-Lawrance is experiencing his breakthrough this season. He has already won three WDF tournaments and is also starting to get his foot in the door at the PDC. He already qualified for four Euro Tour tournaments in 2023, and earlier this year reached the second round in his first two Euro Tour appearances. Danny Noppert was just too strong for the young German each time.
A women's tournament was also played. This was won by Sophie McKinlay, who had beaten Rhian O'Sullivan in the semi-finals. She then settled with Monique Leßmeister (5-3) in the final.

- 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
