Out of the dream!
Florian Hempel (33), the next German darts professional, has been eliminated from the World Cup. The “Kölsche Jung” failed in the third round against Stephen Bunting 0:4.
Hempel, the 59th in the world, had previously sensationally thrown out Dimitri van den Bergh. Only Bunting (number 18 in the world) was one size too big.

The Englishman started like the fire department. In the first set he achieved an average of 115 – an incredible value. Hempel plays 107 on average, even making up 164 – the third highest finish. But Bunting hits all attempts at doubles.
Even after that, the Englishman trumped the strong Hempel. This is how the game goes. Bunting secures himself sentence after sentence. Because when Hempel has a chance, he passes it up.
Significantly: It’s Hempel’s turn in the fourth sentence. But then he abandons himself. When making his position, he accidentally hits the D20 and misses two darts on double 10 and double 5.

Bunting shows that he is still in top form. Even before Christmas he was the professional with the best points average in the Ally Pally.
He continues on Saturday – against superstar Michael van Gerwen, of all people. He had already said: “Give me the bunting.”
In the evening, Ricardo Pietreczko, Germany’s last hope, will play. But he has to compete against Luke Humphries, the best in the world this year. Martin Schindler and Gabriel Clemens were already eliminated on Wednesday.
