Vincent van der Voort in last-minute withdrawal from 2025 World Seniors Darts Championship
WSDT
Vincent van der Voort will not participate in this year's World Seniors Darts Championship after all. The Dutchman, who was scheduled to debut in the first round on Thursday night against Neil Duff at the Circus Tavern in Purfleet, has had to withdraw from the tournament for medical reasons.
Due to the cancellation of Van der Voort, Duff advances to the last 16 without playing, where he will face the winner of the duel between Richard-Eirig Rowlands and Graham Usher. WSD President Jason Francis expressed his support for Van der Voort. "Everyone at WSD's thoughts go out to Vincent, and we thank everyone for their understanding of the situation. Health is paramount, and we wish Vincent all the best. We hope to see him in a WSD tournament very soon."
Due to the cancellation, the playing schedule for Thursday night has been adjusted. The match between Van der Voort and Duff was originally scheduled for 9 p.m., but will now be replaced by the duel between Kevin Painter and Richie Burnett, which was scheduled to take place earlier in the afternoon.

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
- obviously littler has the potential to surpass everybody simply because nobody has been this good at this age before, but people who think he would be any kind of favourite right now against prime taylor in a big final have short memories. it's obvious that prime taylor wouldn't win as many world titles if he was playing today, but there's also good reason to believe he'd be winning more than anybody else. hell, his statistical profile still stands alone in darts history and he might statistically be even better if he was playing today with better equipment, larger beds, more competition therefore more motivation, etc.colt24-03-2025
- Bad idea. Every other Major ranking title prize funds added together do not come to £1 million. Add £500k to the prize pot and spread it out evenly over the draw.Mysstree24-03-2025

- The Premier League is a glorified promotional tool for piss heads to attend and shout abuse at dart players so averages are not the way to pick the best line up. Throw Peter Manley, Eric Bristow and Jocky Wilson into the mix for some real fireworks.Mysstree22-03-2025
