The tournament also had some notable names, with former tour card holders like Jurjen van der Velde, Danny van Trijp, and Geert Nentjes at the start. Van Trijp made the first statement with an average of 104.86, but a round later, his run ended: Daan Bastiaansen was too strong in a good match (3-2). Geert Nentjes noted the second 100+ average of the day a round later: \u2018The Spear\u2019 hit 102.48 in a 3-0 victory over Mike van Leeuwen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Van den Herik dominates, Nentjes heads into Friday with confidence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The three-time World Championship participant had an excellent day after that: with wins over Daan Bastiaansen, Danny Mazereeuw (who missed several match darts), and Jurjen van der Velde, he reached the semi-finals. Kevin de Smit was a somewhat surprising opponent in that match. The draw in the upper quarter had been wide open, but the fairytale run of De Smit was harshly interrupted by Nentjes in the last four. The men from Urk won 4-1, booking his place in the final. Jamai van den Herik would be his opponent. The 21-year-old had a strong day, averaging above 90 in four of his matches. In his semi-final against Keanu van Velzen, he continued that form: a 4-1 win was the final result.<\/p>\n<p>In the final, played to five legs, fatigue seemed to take a toll. Neither player reached the level they had maintained earlier in the day: Nentjes in particular struggled in the first four legs. The former tour card holder won just one of the first five legs, while Van den Herik could celebrate with a 76 finish. With legs in 19 and 13 darts, Nentjes made things a bit tense, but the warm-up tournament had its deserved winner. A 13-darter was the final leg of the opening day, after which Jamai van den Herik raised his hands in victory.<\/p>\n<p><em>Text: Dartsactueel<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8102&#8243; img_size=&#8221;600 x 400&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]Photo: Jos Groen[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;]<div class=\"gt-heading gt-dark gt-size1 gt-center\"><div class=\"gt-title\">ANDER <span>NIEUWS<\/span><\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;]<div class=\"gt-event-listing\"><div class=\"gt-columns gt-column-3\"><div class=\"gt-col\"><div class=\"gt-inner\"><div class=\"gt-event-style-3\"><div class=\"gt-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dutchopendarts.nl\/en\/event\/dutch-open-darts-2027-dates-announced\/\" title=\"Dutch Open Darts 2027 Dates Announced\"><img width=\"952\" height=\"579\" src=\"https:\/\/dutchopendarts.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260402-20260208-BasvandenBerk-952x579.jpg\" class=\"attachment-eventchamp-event-list size-eventchamp-event-list wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dutchopendarts.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260402-20260208-BasvandenBerk-952x579.jpg 952w, https:\/\/dutchopendarts.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260402-20260208-BasvandenBerk-130x80.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"gt-content\"><div class=\"gt-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dutchopendarts.nl\/en\/event\/dutch-open-darts-2027-dates-announced\/\" title=\"Dutch Open Darts 2027 Dates Announced\">Dutch Open Darts 2027 Dates Announced<\/a><\/div><div class=\"gt-details\"><div class=\"gt-date\"><i class=\"far fa-calendar-alt\"><\/i><span>2 April 2026<\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"gt-text\">The dates for the Dutch Open Darts 2027 have been confirmed.
