I don’t have an agenda and of course you wouldn’t ignore all the 95 plus averages in other darting events would you, oh no siree...

Ffs have heard it all now. The poster known as Garry Murphy accusing someone else of using averages to suit their agenda.

Mensur Suljovic and Simon Whitlock secure being seeded to Euro Tours 11 and 12 in September with just 3 events to go before the cut-off.

Hope this serves as a kick up the arse for both Chisnall and Kim, who are both potentially going to have to go to the Qualifiers.

Well played!

Whitlock not 'finished' yet. Just seen on fb he is in the final.

Shame that this first Danish event came on the same weekend as the Six Nations. Seems to have been forgotten here.

For me it's a case of out of sight out of mind.

Mervyn King gets back into the provisional seedings for Euro Tours 11 & 12 with just 2 events to go before the cut-off, with Dave Chisnall needing a run tomorrow to have any chance of being seeded.

THE European Darts Matchplay begins on Friday, with former European Tour event winners Justin Pipe and Robert Thornton amongst the stars in action in the first round.

The £135,000 tournament is the year's ninth European Tour event, as 48 players compete at the edel-optics.de Arena in Hamburg across the weekend.

Friday's first round will feature 32 qualifiers competing, with the field to be finalised following Thursday's South & West Europe Qualifier and Host Nation Qualifier.

Former Austrian Darts Open winner Pipe is awaiting opposition from the European Qualfier, alongside Luke Humphries, Andy Boulton and Darius Labanauskas, who reached the last 16 of the Danish Darts Open last weekend.

Scottish star Thornton, a European Tour winner in Dusseldorf three years ago, is joined by Michael Barnard in lining up against a German qualifier.

Chris Dobey opens up against Jamie Bain, while former World Youth Champion Keegan Brown plays Jason Lowe and 2018 Coral UK Open semi-finalist Rob Owen meets Russia's Boris Koltsov.

The seeded players, led by world number one Michael van Gerwen, World Champion Rob Cross and last week's Danish Darts Open winner Mensur Suljovic, enter at the second round stage on Saturday.

From the original field of entries, Peter Wright and Jim Brown have withdrawn, meaning that UK Qualifier James Wilson becomes a seed and that two additional places will be available in the Host Nation Qualifier.

The European Darts Matchplay will take place from June 29-July 1, with streaming available for all PDCTV-HD Subscribers worldwide as well as through a series of bookmakers' websites.

Could be wrong, but pretty sure he didn't get through the qualifier. This took place before he was high enough on the Pro Tour OOM to be seeded.

Klaasen, Van der Voort and Wattimena are the first qualifiers. Klaasen’s qualification means North is out of the Matchplay atm. Still has a chance if Huybrechts wins vs Bain/Dobey on Saturday #EDM18 https://t.co/EPMhmFyn32

Noppert not qualifying. No Matchplay for Danny.
