The Dutch Open is no exception: 54 players started the tournament on Sunday morning, competing in the under-14 category. In the early rounds, two players immediately stood out: both August Villumsen from Denmark and Eric Petereit from Germany posted averages of over 88. The two players quickly made their way to the semifinals, where they faced each other.<\/p>\n<p>Villumsen triumphed with a dominant 3-0 scoreline, then went on to face a talented player from Belgium in the final. Tiago Longa Y Galdo averaged over 70 in three of his matches leading to the final, and he did the same in the final. However, this wasn\u2019t enough for the title: Villumsen started with a 112 finish, followed by legs in 19 and 17 darts. With an average of 88.41, the 13-year-old was the clear and deserving winner.<\/p>\n<p><em>Text: Dartsactueel<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8195&#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.
