GARY ANDERSON AND PETER WRIGHT AMONGST THE WORLD CHAMPIONS HUNTING VICTORY IN GERMANY 09:34, 31 May 2025 Dave Chisnall will begin his defence of the Elten Safety Shoes European Darts Open
against Cameron Menzies. The year’s eighth European Tour event is now down to 32 players competing for the £30,000 top prize in Leverkusen after Friday’s 16 first round matches. The 16 PDC
Order of Merit Qualifiers will enter the tournament in Saturday’s second round as reigning champion Chisnall sets his sights on a ninth European Tour crown with Jonny Clayton, Stephen
Bunting, Michael Smith, Peter Wright, Nathan Aspinall and Gary Anderson amongst the big names joining for the second-round matches. Highlights on day one saw Niko Springer storm through by
demolishing Dirk van Duijvenbode to set-up a clash with Chris Dobey. Sweden’s Andreas Harrysson claimed the scalp of Raymond van Barneveld and will now face another former World Champion
Smith, who is embroiled in a battle for World Matchplay qualification. Wessel Nijman, a semi-finalist in Rosmalen last weekend, swept aside the returning Brendan Dolan in his opener and his
reward is a clash with two-time World Champion Gary Anderson. Following Saturday’s second round, the third round will take place on Sunday afternoon, before the tournament concludes with the
quarter-finals, semi-finals and final in a blockbuster evening session. Live coverage from the European Darts Open will be streamed on DAZN for viewers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland,
and through the DAZN Darts channel on Pluto TV. Schedule of Play Saturday May 31 Second Round Afternoon Session 12 noon Ross Smith v Matt Campbell Ryan Searle v Andrew Gilding Damon Heta v
