Gabriel Clemens fails in his opening match at the UK Open – despite the perfect double quota. The other Germans also miss the jump in round four.
It just doesn’t run smoothly for Gabriel Clemens. The “German Giant” also resigned in his opening game at the UK Open (live on free TV and livestream). In Minehead he lost 5: 6 in the legs in round three in round three in round.
Particularly annoying: Clemens played an average of over 100 points and met all of his five attempts to double. But Evans played an outstanding decider and checked the match gain in eleven darts.

In the end, Clemens did not help six 180s, opponents Evans showed freezing cold in the crucial phases.
No additional German in the 4th round
The other Germans also missed moving into the 4th round. Dominik Greunde lost to Nick Kenny with 3: 6, Lukas Little lost against Kim Huybrechts with 4: 6 and Florian Hempel had to give up with 3: 6.
Niko Springer also lost his game (5: 6 against Dylan Slevin), but caused a great sensation in his opening game: the “Meenzer Bub” played an average of 115.92 and thus the second highest in tournament history. In addition, this meant a new German TV, stage and major record.
Max Hopp already failed in round one with 0: 6 at the English qualifier Shaun Fox. At her opening game, Leon Weber (1: 6 against Alexander Merkx), Max Czerwinski (4: 6 against Maik Kuiveenhoven) and World Cup participant Kai Gotthardt (4: 6 against Tommy Lishman) failed.
This means that only Martin Schindler and Ricardo Pietreczko are in the 4th round of the UK Open. “The Wall” will meet the Belgian Mario Vandenbogaerde on Friday evening from 8 p.m., “Pickachu” plays against the Latvian Madars Razma.
