Barney averages a max every 3.9 legs.Ĭhuck a dart at the Barney match treble – to win the match, hit most 180s and land the highest checkout – at 15-8.īoris Krcmar, ranked 61 in the world, is odds-on to beat Dirk van Duijvenbode, ranked 12 in the world, because the Dutchman has been poleaxed by a shoulder injury. Interesting but not surprising for a player who averages a maximum every 9.2 legs on the Pro Tour.

It was interesting that in Szaganski's 21-leg marathon first-round triumph over Marko Kantele on Wednesday he didn't hit a single 180. However, he has also played Barney twice on the floor in the past six months and lost both times. The Magpie is a dangerous opponent for anyone and while Dobey's class and experience could be the difference, O'Connor has to be able to clear a 92.5 average.įormer champion Raymond van Barneveld makes his bow against Radek Szaganski, a dangerous Pole who has won on the Pro Tour in 2023. The Belgian hasn't had a great year - indeed his form has deserted him more and more as the season has progressed - and Hempel has to fancy his chances.Īnd the same is true of O'Connor, who averaged almost 99 against Patel and knows he has the measure of Dobey having beaten him in their only TV meeting, the Players Championship Finals a couple of years back.

German star Hempel knows he can beat Van den Bergh on the biggest stage of all having done just that at this same point in the tournament two years ago. Van den Bergh and Dobey are priced up for routine wins but the outsiders are more than capable of making them work for the gold. O'Connor's prize for a nine-leg whitewash of Indian qualifier Bhav Patel is a dust-up with Masters champion Chris Dobey. Hempel's reward for coming from a set down to beat Dylan Slevin is an Alexandra Palace rematch with Dimitri van den Bergh.
