FELLOW Stockport star Darryl Fitton was also in fine form at the International Darts League tournament, where he reached the quarter-finals and picked up 4,500 euros in prize money for his efforts.
Fitton topped the so-called ‘group of death’ in the second group stage after beating 13-time World champion Phil Taylor and young sensation Michael van Gerwen, while also losing out 7-6 to current PDC champion Raymond van Barneveld.
After that though, the Stockport favourite crashed 6-2 to Ady Lewis in the last eight.

"I missed too many doubles against Lewis," said Fitton.
"But overall I played well all week, and it was particularly sweet to beat Phil Taylor. I averaged 35 per dart in that game."
