Rory Hansen to win (vs Nick Fullwell) @ 12/5
On tomorrow
Quarter-final line up complete.
And what a tournament it has been so far.
Richard Veenstra averaged a scintillating 104.91 in his last 16 victory over Luke Littler and in the quarter-finals heāll play World Number 1 Brian Raman of Belgium, who averaged 97.47 in his 3-0 victory over Jared Cole.
In the other half of the draw the other Belgian Andy Baetens has just clocked a 102.79 average in beating Scott Marsh (96.20) 3-0.
Belgian darts fanatic Jacky will be ecstatic.
Baetens will play Franceās Thibaut Tricole (90.36) who beat Steve Hine 3-1 and that promises to be an all-European tie to savour.
Defending World Professional Champion Wayne Warren is OUT. He lost 3-0 to Scotlandās Cameron Menzies.
In the ladiesā competition, FOTF Aileen De Graaf is making waves. She has sensationally eliminated the undisputed Queen of the ladiesā game, Mikuru Suzuki.
Poor oulā Deta Hedman went out again without winning a set. Sheāll never do it now.
The pressure of the Lakeside stage.
What a three days of darts are ahead of us as The Greatest Show On Earth comes to its conclusion.

More accurate than a Ukrainian drone.
Nice copy and paste job. With all the soccer on i suppose hard to have time to watch amateur darts.
Great prediction
Great darts
Duff Man feeling the pressure so far.
Great to see the final going back to the proper championship length of best of 11 sets.
Tebow is 33% of the way there. Heās blowing Duff Man away.
France having the World Darts champion will completely overshadow the French election results.
Great to see Belgian darts fanatic Jacky at the Home Of Darts for the final despite the disappointment of seeing Belgiumās two big hopes Andy Baetens and Brian Raman going out in the quarter-finals.
What a character.
The big man from Ballyclare is on the board.
2-1.
Savage 94 outshot by Duff Man.
Thatāll boost his average up from 75.
And now an 82 outshot by the Irishman. World class.
180, 145, nails double 9. to lead set 6 1-0.
If he could take this set heād level up at 3-3.
Duff Man is well and truly back in this final.
Champagne darts by Duff Man as he takes out 81 by going single 2, treble 19 and double 11 to make it 3-3!
Is the world title coming home to Ireland for the first time ever?
84 plays 79 averageš
World class.
This could be the greatest night ever for Ulster sport if Neil Duff becomes World Professional Darts champion and Rory McIlroy wins the US Masters, and both now look likely.
Duff Man is 4-3 up and has broken Thibault in the first leg of the next set.
Thibault is not done yet. Nails a pressure 96 in the next leg.
This is great stuff.
4-4! 30 years ago Phil Taylor and Mike Gregory gave us the greatest final of all time but this is now coming very close to that.
Nice to see you tuning in for final after not watching a game all week.
