Hungarian Darts Trophy
About Hungarian Darts Trophy 2023
The third edition of the Hungarian Darts Trophy was held in Budapest, Hungary from 22 to 24 September. Dave Chisnall took the title during a EuroTour tournament for the third time in 2023, after beating Luke Humphries in the final.
Chisnall is having a strong EuroTour year and goes to Hungary as the first seeded player. In his first match he faces Scott Mitchell. The Englishman is playing at a EuroTour tournament for the first time in his career, but cannot compete with Chisnall who wins 6-2. In the last sixteen, Chisnall faces Rowby-John Rodriguez. 'Chizzy' throws a good match and beats the Austrian 6-1.
The real test awaits Chisnall in the quarter-finals: he will meet Michael van Gerwen. It will be a match in which both men perform well, but Chisnall ultimately proves to be the strongest with a 6-4 victory. During the semi-finals, the man in the yellow shirt will meet a man in yellow pants: Scott Williams. For the first time, Williams is in the semi-finals of a EuroTour tournament and he does not give up easily: Chisnall wins, but with a narrow score of 7-5.
Chisnall has reached the final and will face Luke Humphries. 'Cool Hand' is seeded third for this tournament and wins successively against Keane Barry (6-2), Martin Schindler (6-1), Luke Woodhouse (6-0) and Gerwyn Price (7-4). During all these matches, Humphries managed to throw an average of over a hundred.
Chisnall and Humphries will meet each other for the third time this year in the final of a EuroTour tournament. The first two finals were won by Chisnall, but Humphries is doing everything he can to take home the cup this time. He starts the match with a 170 finish and moments later he hits a nine-darter (his first on TV and his third this year). Yet it does not help him to win the tournament: it is Chisnall who wins the all-deciding leg with an average of almost 105, allowing him to call himself a Hungarian Darts Trophy winner for the first time. Humphries just misses out on the title, but ends the tournament with a 100+ average in every match he played.
