Barneveld opens his title defence today.
It was a shame Adams and Fitton had to meet in the first round...
Second round draw currently looks like this:
Jelle Klassen/Dennis Harbour v Mervyn King (1) Paul Hogan v Albertino Essers Shaun Greatbatch v Per Laursen Paul Hanvidge v Simon Whitlock (4) Martin Atkins v Martin Adams (2) Mike Veitch v Stephen Roberts Ross Montgomery/Vincent van der Voort v Tony O'Shea (6) Gary Robson/Gary Anderson v Raymond van Barneveld (3)/Brian Sorensen

It's worth mentioning that this year, they play an extra set in every round from Round 2 onwards.
Round 2: Best of 7 Quarter-finals: Best of 9 Semi-finals: Best of 11 Final: Best of 13 (in line with the PDC championship)

What a player Jelle Klaasen is beating the World #1 4-2 and hot prospect for the future

Klaasen was definitely sh1t hot. He'll go far if he continues playing like he has done.
I'm looking forward to the Van Der Voort/O'Shea match.

I didn't get a chance to post after Klaasen's 1st round match but he looked very impressive there. Definitely looks like a future world champion.
After seeing what he did to Mervyn King last night, it wouldn't surprise me if he got all the way to the final this year, especially with the other remaining seed in the top half, Simon Whitlock getting knocked out last night.
One from Klaasen, Hogan, Greatbatch and Hanvidge will definitely be in the final.

The first all Dutch Final between Barney and Klaasen...
It will be a very entertaining match because really it all depends whether Klaasen can produce the goods and Barney can keep on the level he was against Martin Adams

It should be a very interesting match. Klaasen was clearly feeling it in his match today. If I had to pick though, I would go for Klaasen.

I think Klaasen will be world champion but not today. I pick Barney to win 7-3 or 7-4.
