Development Tour 11

The first round offered interesting matches with Wessel Nijman knocking out the PDC Tour Card holder, Dylan Slevin. Also Czech youngster Adam Gawlas had average 96, but lost to Connor Arberry. 

Bradley Brooks started his campaign with two whitewashes of Dutch players - Nando Engelend and Jurjen van der Velde. He defeated Arberry in the last 16 and continued with two 5-2 wins over Fred Box and Harry Gregory. Brooks played brilliant darts in the final match against Dutch Owen Roelofs and won 5-3 having average 101,38!

It was the first title of the season for former PDC World Youth Champion with £2500 win setting him Nr. 4 of the PDC Development Tour Order of merit.

But the second title of the day already ended in Dutch hands as Wessel Nijman defeated Dylan Slevin 5-1 in the final with awesome average 100,34. The 22-year old defeated the Development Tour leader, Luke Littler, 4-1 in the last 32 and played top-level darts also in the following rounds defeating Jurjen van der Velde and Croatian Filip Ljubenko.

Rusty-Jake Rodriguez could not stop him in the semifinal and Gian van Veen lost 4-5 to Dylan Slevin in the second semifinal match. 

Nijman already won the PDC Development Tour 6 and with his second title of the season he is now on the third place in ranking. Pretty good results for the player who came back on tour early this year after a suspension of more than two years for involvement in a match-fixing scandal.
