1 Comment

 
GARY ANDERSON will begin his title defence at the Auckland Darts Masters, presented by TAB & Burger King, against Australia's Kyle Anderson on Friday.

Two-time World Champion Anderson claimed the World Series of Darts title in Auckland last year when he overcame 2015 winner Adrian Lewis in the final at the Trusts Arena.

He has been paired with namesake Kyle Anderson in Friday's first round in New Zealand, with the Australian ace on a high after winning his first PDC ranking title at a Players Championship last Saturday, when he also landed a nine-dart finish.

UK Open champion and world number three Peter Wright faces a tough test when he comes up against Corey Cadby, the reigning PDC Unicorn World Youth Champion who knocked out Phil Taylor in last year's Perth Darts Masters.

Taylor, the 16-time World Champion who will compete in Auckland for the final time in this weekend's event, has drawn newcomer Darren Herewini for his first round tie, with the 26-year-old making his TV debut against the sport's greatest ever player.

DPNZ number one Rob Szabo will come up against another debutant in the PDC's international World Series of Darts events, Michael Smith, while another top Kiwi, Warren Parry, has drawn five-time World Champion Raymond van Barneveld.

Emerging Kiwi star Cody Harris will take on Australia's Simon Whitlock, while U.S. Darts Masters finalist Daryl Gurney meets Adelaide's Rob Modra and two-time World Series finalist James Wade plays home qualifier Mark Cleaver.

The Auckland Darts Masters, presented by TAB & Burger King, will be played from August 11-13 at the Trusts Arena. For tickets, visit www.ticketek.co.nz.

TV coverage will be live in New Zealand on Sky Sport, and worldwide through the PDC's series of broadcast partners, as well as through PDCTV-HD at www.pdc.tv for Rest of the World Subscribers.

UK TV coverage will be from 7pm (BST) on ITV4, with coverage in the Netherlands on RTL7 from 10pm on Friday and Saturday and 10.40pm on Sunday.

This was an awesome match to watch. Phil was was so respectful of the young player and even though for the past three years I have wanted that dart board I was excited that Phil gave it to Darren! There is one more chance though so Phil we have seats on the middle table at the back this year but if you could find it in your heart to once you win tomorrow night to look down the table for me and give me your final dart board ever in NZ. Good luck for your future and you are the power Taylor always. See you tomorrow. VickI xxx
