Planet Darts - Holsten Premier League Darts

RAYMOND VAN BARNEVELD 4-8 DENNIS PRIESTLEY

WORLD CHAMPION Raymond van Barneveld suffered his second defeat of the 2007 Holsten Premier League Darts, with Dennis Priestley taking out the Dutchman 8-4 in Blackpool.

Van Barneveld bounced back from a defeat to Phil Taylor with a superb 8-1 win over Roland Scholten a week ago, but never settled against Priestley.

The 56-year-old Yorkshireman regained his finishing touch following his first defeat of the competition in Aberdeen seven days earlier to take a notable scalp.

Having previously drawn with Phil Taylor, Priestley moved onto 11 points and a step closer to securing his play-off berth with a famous triumph.

VETERAN Dennis Priestley, so often the 'nearly man' at Blackpool's Winter Gardens, rolled back the years to stun world champion Raymond van Barneveld in the Holsten Premier League.
But there was no stopping that man Phil Taylor, who re-claimed top spot in the overall standings with an 8-1 thrashing of Colin Lloyd, a former World Matchplay winner himself.
Priestley, who has come agonisingly close to winning the World Matchplay without success, beat van Barneveld 8-4. Blackpool Today Sports news - Fans flock for Blackpool darts
