Updates from the Adonis…..
Congratulations to Michael Van Gerwen on winning the tournament, he played brilliant darts and deserved the win !!!
I was really pleased with my overall performance and know I am playing well, so my time will come !!!
Next on the agenda was Killarney in Ireland for two Pro Tour events at the Gleneagle Hotel.
On the Saturday I made it to the quarter finals and this is how it went.
Started with a 6-5 win against Steve Maish, Joe Byrne 6-3, Mark Webster 6-3, James Hubbard 6-4, then lost to the eventual tournament winner Peter Wright 6-4.
On Sunday I only made the board final after beating Peter Hudson 6-3,Campbell Jackson 6-3 and for the second day running Peter Wright beat me 6-4.
Peter was in brilliant form all weekend and nearly produced a nine darter. Mighty Mike Van Gerwen won the Sunday tournament, my congratulations to them both!!!
This week I travel to Holland for the 5th European Tour of the year at the Van der Valk Hotel and I have drawn Dean Winstanley in the first round.
Dean and I are both trying to qualify for the Players Championship Finals at Minehead in November and there is literally nothing separating us in the order of merit so should be a really exciting game.
I am then off to the Championship League at Crondon Park on the 31st Oct.
Finally, I am really pleased to announce that I have already qualified for the William Hill Grand Slam of Darts at the Wolverhampton Civic from 10th - 18th Nov, televised by Sky Sports.
This is a really busy time in the darts calendar and I am looking forward to every tournament.
Happy Darting
Steve
