International Darts Open Results and Schedule:

Nathan Aspinall has continued his comeback from injury by reaching the Quarter-Finals of the International Darts Open in Riesa after dumping out defending champion and top seed, Joe Cullen 6-3.

 

Aspinall who admitted after his opener that he still wasn’t done with his treatment and has only just picked up his darts again recently in preparation for this after having since the World Championship off performed well against the in-form Rockstar.

Danny Noppert has handed Michael van Gerwen another early exit as his wait for his first ranking title of the season and also his 33rd European Tour title live on with the Green Machine not winning one since 2019.

 

The International Darts Open is also one of the only tournaments not on his current resume and it won’t be this weekend after a 6-4 defeat to ‘The Freeze’ who broke his hoodoo at the World Grand prix and now has back-to-back wins over his compatriot.

A shame for Van Gerwen but the third round is still decent enough! Gerwyn Price ended up taking the win.

Draw and schedule for the UK Open which will be live on ITV4 this weekend.

 

https://dartsnews.com/pdc/draw-and-schedule...opening-session

Two English darts players will be attending the UK Open for the twentieth time this weekend. They are the only players who have qualified for all editions of the tournament.

 

James Wade, triple UK Open winner and defending champion, belongs to this unique group. Steve Beaton also never missed an edition. The Bronzed Adonis had his best result in 2004, when he reached the semi-finals.
