Young Wins 2015 PDC (Professional Darts Corporation) Spectacular

A weekend of darts at the Ambassador Hotel and Conference Center saw four qualifying events each produce eight players who took part in the last 32 knockout for the PDC Spectacular.

Last year's winner Dave Richardson reached the last 16 before losing to Jerry Van Loan, with Young and Butler - the United States' World Cup of Darts team at June's event in Germany - progressing to contest the final.

Young took a 3-2 sets win over the former World Matchplay champion in the decider, earning himself a return to darts' greatest tournament in December.

Young's run included three straight sets wins over former World Championship qualifiers Norman Madhoo, David Fatum and Ken MacNeil - where the American left-hander missed double 12 for a nine-darter - before he then whitewashed Paul Bolduc to reach the final.

Butler, who had defeated Trevor Campbell, Jim Long, Shawn Brenneman and John Part to reach the decider, won the final's opening set 3-2 in legs before Young took the second, also in the fifth leg, to level.

The next two sets also went the full distance to take the final into a fifth set, which saw Young land a 177 as he broke throw in the opening leg before posting a 13-darter to move 2-0 up.

Butler hit back in the third, but Young was too strong in the next leg as he claimed the win and his World Championship spot.

"I'm very humbled to have won the tournament," said Young. "I'm thrilled to have won and I am looking forward to returning to the William Hill World Championship this December representing North America."

Young has competed eight times previously in the World Championship, but saw his run of playing in six successive Alexandra Palace events ended last year.

Three-time World Champion John Part missed out with a semi-final loss to Butler, while Bolduc also reached the last four and Dan Olson, Shawn Brenneman, MacNeil and Van Loan were quarter-finalists.

Tungsten darts are popular among professional players, when comes to the big event like PDC Spectacular, players would choose tungsten dart to get a higher score in games, for tungsten darts are denser, smaller than other materials darts.
