PDC World Pairs Championships
October 26th. Sunday night was finals night at the PDC World Pairs Championships at Butlin's South Coast World in Bognor Regis. Starring in front of the capacity crowd were Holland's Raymond Barneveld and Roland Scholten, in startling form throughout this tournament, and Rod Harrington and Ritchie Burnett.
The Dutchmen quickly got into their stride, streaking to an early 5-0 lead, stunning Harrington and Burnett who seemed helpless against the finishing prowess of the men from the low country. Harrington deliberately slowed his game down, sometimes taking as much as 20 seconds to throw his three darts, which seemed to unsettle the Dutchmen. The score edged towards its conclusion, but at 15-11 Harrington and Burnett did appear to be threatening an incredible comeback.
However, Barneveld's accuracy around the treble 20 told, and with Scholten checking out on double 18 to go to 16-11 the final was looking all but over. Harrington rallied, sinking a massively pressured double 12 to go to 16-12, but the Dutchmen's mastery told. Harrington kept sinking doubles, bringing him and his partner to 17-15, but finally the Dutchmen triumphed, winning the 1997 World Pairs title 18-15. Full Results | Match Commentary
