About Dutch Darts Championship 2025
Jonny Clayton
From 23 to 25 May, the Dutch Darts Championship will be held in Rosmalen, the Netherlands. It is the seventh EuroTour tournament of 2025. Almost all the big names are present in Rosmalen, including defending champion Josh Rock.
No less than six of the seeded players lost their first match, including third seed Stephen Bunting, who lost to Niko Springer. Gerwyn Price and Michael van Gerwen withdrew from the tournament at the last minute, allowing Mickey Mansell to go straight to the last 16 through a bye.
Jonny Clayton starts the tournament in the second round against the German Max Hopp, whom he beats 6-2. In the last 16 he faces Ross Smith, whom he beats 6-5 after an exciting match. In the quarter-finals he wins against Danny Noppert and in the semi-finals he beats Luke Humphries 7-5 for a place in the final.
In the final he will face the German Niko Springer. Springer starts in the first round and reaches the final after victories over Jermaine Wattimena (6-4), Stephen Bunting (6-5), Martin Schindler (6-2), Ricardo Pietreczko (6-2) and Wessel Nijman (7-3).
Springer seized the early initiative in Sunday’s showpiece with legs of 12, 13 and 15 darts, but Clayton was unfazed, levelling at five apiece with a three-leg blitz of his own. layton then followed up a 13-dart break with a clutch 91 checkout to move to the cusp of victory at 7-5, before defying a brief rally from the young German to wrap up proceedings via double two.
Jonny Clayton claimed his third European Tour title with a superb 8-6 win over Niko Springer in Sunday’s Elten Safety Shoes Dutch Darts Championship final.
Clayton – the runner-up to Josh Rock in last year’s showpiece – fought back from 3-0, 4-1 and 5-2 down to deny Springer a first senior ranking title in a captivating clash.
The Welshman also continued his love-affair with Rosmalen, extending his winning run at the Autotron to 12 matches following his Players Championship success at this venue back in April.
