Dutch Darts Masters: Jan Dekker beats Adrian Lewis
Jan Dekker delighted the home crowd at the Dutch Darts Masters with a 6-4 win over two-time world champion Adrian Lewis as the European Tour event in Zwolle started on Friday.
Dekker had won through the Host Nation Qualifier to secure his spot in the £135,000 event, and rose to the occasion against the Englishman.
Lewis had come from behind to lead 3-2, but an 11-darter from Dekker levelled before he moved 5-3 up, and he sealed the win with a 13-dart finish.
"It's a great win," said Dekker, who now plays Simon Whitlock in Saturday's second round. "In the beginning I didn't play well but at the end of the day I played okay.
"I'm so proud to play here for the Dutch crowd, and I'm over the moon at the moment."

Josh Payne came through a remarkable 11-leg contest with Jonny Clayton, surviving a missed match dart before progressing to a tie with Mensur Suljovic.
Austrian Darts Open winner Clayton led 2-0, 3-1 and 4-2 before Payne hit back to level and then took out 116 on the bull to move 5-4 up.
Clayton forced a decider, but missed double 12 for a 141 checkout to snatch the win before Payne landed double ten for a narrow triumph.
Veteran star Terry Jenkins will lock horns once more with reigning champion Michael van Gerwen in Saturday's second round, after overcoming Belgian youngster Mike De Decker 6-2.

The Wolverhampton thrower put in three 180s and a 106 checkout en route to victory, and he will now face Kim Huybrechts on Saturday afternoon.
Jermaine Wattimena also gave the home crowd something to cheer with a 6-3 triumph over European Tour debutant Adam Huckvale.
The fast-throwing Host Nation Qualifier was made to work hard for the win by Huckvale, and he will now take on Joe Cullen in round two.
