Schindler eyeing more European Tour glory
Martin Schindler booked his spot in the third round with a 6-4 win over Martin Lukeman yesterday.
The German No1 is chasing his second European Tour title of the season after getting off the mark at the Austria Darts Open in April.
Schindler faces Niko Springer in an all-German tie this afternoon.
His side of the draw is particularly more favourable, but Schindler could meet the likes of Luke Humphries in the final.
Humphries on stunning comeback
Luke Humphries overturned a 5-3 deficit against Cameron Menzies to progress to the final day of the Dutch Darts Championship.
Cool Hand will play 2022/23 world champion Michael Smith for a spot in the quarter-finals this afternoon.
Speaking after the match with Menzies, the World No1 said: “I’m proud of myself there.
“I didn’t give up, and I managed to fight back and get the win with a decent performance.
“It was nice to get some emotion out and feel that good after winning the game.
“Now I need to build on my performance and be better tomorrow against Michael.”
