Phil Taylor won through to the German Darts Masters final with a heavy-scoring 6-3 win over Stephen Bunting at the Maritim Hotel in Berlin. Taylor hit a 170 score to leave 32 in the opening leg, but three misses at double 16 allowed Bunting in to take out 120 to move ahead. Taylor posted a 180 and double five to level, and added another maximum in the third leg only to miss two darts at double 14 as Bunting finnished 90 on the bull to edge 2-1 up. Taylor added another 180 and a 121 finish for a 12-darter as he levelled, before he finally broke in the fifth leg, responding to a 180 from Bunting with a 165 score, and when the St Helens ace missed the bullseye he capitalised on double eight for a 13-darter. Double 16 moved him 4-2 up, and though Bunting replied on double eight, Taylor finished double 16 to take a 5-3 led before sealing victory in style with an 11-dart leg, scoring a 177 on the way and jumping on a miss from Bunting at the bull for a 170 checkout.

 

Michael van Gerwen claimed victory over great rival Adrian Lewis as he reached the German Darts Masters final with a 6-3 triumph, despite the Stoke ace hitting five 180s. Lewis' first maximum came in the opening leg, but he missed double 16 as van Gerwen broke on tops and then doubled his lead with the aid of a 171 score. Lewis landed another maximum as he got off the mark in leg three, but van Gerwen posted a 180 in a 14-darter as he moved 3-1 up. Lewis replied in 13 darts, hitting a 180 and double ten - although van Gerwen had a dart at tops to finish 104. The Dutchman hit the bed in the sixth leg and left 40 after 12 darts in the next, only for Lewis to hit a 118 finish to pull back to 4-3. Van Gerwen posted a 180 and double eight to win his fifth leg, and though Lewis landed a maximum in the next, two misses at double eight allowed the Dutch ace in to hit the same bed and seal his spot in the final.
