#342: Jeffrey de Graaf, Jarno Bottenberg, Masters and Dutch Open Reviews

Weekly Dartscast

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode after the Masters.

The team start the show with a look back at the weekend's action in Milton Keynes, and discuss Stephen Bunting's run to a first PDC major title, as well as give their thoughts on Peter Wright's eye-catching comments after his second-round win on Saturday.

Alex and Burton also reflect on the action at the Dutch Open, which saw Beau Greaves regain the women's title and Jarno Bottenberg check out a title-winning 131 finish to claim the men's trophy. The team also delve into the draw for next week's World Seniors Championship and answer your questions in the mailbag.

Returning PDC tour card holder Jeffrey de Graaf (16:35) calls in ahead of the first events of the 2024 PDC ProTour next week. The Dutch-born Swede talks through his career so far, from debuting at Lakeside, reaching a BDO major final and his first stint with a PDC tour card to moving from the Netherlands to Sweden, his first win at Ally Pally in December and his dramatic final day at European Q-School last month which saw him regain his tour card.

Newly crowned Dutch Open champion Jarno Bottenberg (50:36) also stops by after his memorable victory in Assen at the weekend. The Dutchman looks back on his first WDF ranking title and explains why it was a 'home game' for him, and also discusses his career so far in the game, including his first appearance at the Lakeside last December and his plans now for the rest of 2024 after already securing his spot in this year's WDF World Championships.
