Europe semi
van Dongen vs Klaasen
Geeraets vs Drue Reus


UK semi
Dennant vs Taylor
Lauby vs Grundy

It is
Benjamin Drue Reus vs Jelle Klaasen
for a tour card in Europe.

The loser will end the day on 6 points, so probably will still need to add a point or 2 in the remaining 2 events.

Two very one sided UK semi's
Dom Taylor posts a 101.85 average in a 6-1 win over Dennant. Dennant ends the day on 6 points with a +30 leg difference. Based on last year, it could be enough but he will want to add to his total tomorrow.

Robert Grundy whitewashed Lauby, and posted a 100.2 average. Lauby ends the day on 4 points, highly unlikely to be enough so two days to improve his position.

Looked a great game, and it took an 11 darter for Jelle Klaasen to win it. Both posting just shy of a ton average.

Drue Reus unlucky.

Robert Grundy, with a very strong performance, beats Dom Taylor 6-2.
Grundy ended with a 105.25 average, after a strong performance all day.

Willie Borland out already today, so won't strengthen his position in the OoM.
John Part demolished by Scott Mitchell.

Andy Baetens finally putting a run together. Already in top 32 while others are player 128s

Bridgewater v Bennett
Cromwell v Griffin

In todays UK semi

Baetens v Sedlak
Szaganski v Puha

In Europe.

Baetens vs Szaganski in the final.

Bennett v Cromwell in the UK final.

Bennett has 8 points on the board, so even with defeat is almost certainly winning a tour card.
Cromwell is on 5 points, so still work to be done if he loses.



In Germany, Puha and van Dongen win tour cards on OoM with 8 points. Szaganski has 7, so good chance he gets a TC even in defeat. Baetens is further back on 5 so only guarantees his TC with a win.

Andy Baetens wins a tour card with a 6-5 win.

Szaganski is in that position where if he plays tomorrow he could make his situation worse, his current point tally and +35 leg aggregate is enough so don't expect to see him in day 4.

Leighton Bennett secures his tour card with a 6-3 win.

No OoM tour cards decided in UK by the looks of it, but Hurrell and Borland look good on 7 points, with Hurrell having a very healthy leg difference. Again, they may decide not to play tomorrow to avoid a 6-0 loss!

Szaganski did indeed sit out today, and collected a tour card.

Mario vandenboegarde, who started the day on 6 points, got hammered 6-0 thus weakening his position. 6 is usually borderline.

Thomas Cromwell is out, currently sits 8th in the OoM on 5 points but won't be enough at the end of the day barring a freak set of results.

Patrick Geeraets seals his tour card via the OoM.

UK OoM leader Hurrell (7) has lost without putting more points on the table, while Rhys Griffin and Andy Boulton are also out on 5 points. They must wait and hope.

Fallon Sherrock also out.
