Dutch Eagle Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 John Michael (Yannis Michail) and German based Veniamin Symeonidis managed to progress to the European Q(ualifying) Schools final stage. In order to get a Tourcard for 2021 the Greeks must win one of the 4 days. To win a day you need 7 straight wins as there are 128 contenders. The four winners of each day get a card. 8 other players get a card based on the Order of Merit. The rules for that Order is simple: every win in the four days earns you a point. The eight players that have the most points without winning a single day qualify. Therefore reaching the quarterfinals on two days must be sufficient to get that card. In the UK there is a similar tournament. And also 12 cards to win.

Dutch Eagle Posted February 14, 2021 Author Share Posted February 14, 2021 Day one was not good at all. Both Greeks lost 6-3. Tomorrow is another day with opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Eagle Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 Day 2. Symeonidis was eliminated in round one (last 128). Michael did much better. He won his first three rounds to be eliminated in the round of 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Eagle Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Day 3. Can’t find Symeonidis on the scoreboard. Could be a withdrawl. John Michael had a very good day as he reached the semifinal. He was beaten by the winner of the day. Tomorrow is the last day. A win is enough. And otherwise a quarterfinal might be enough too, but that is depending of the results of the other players too. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Eagle Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 What a good day for Greek sports! After Tsitsipas conquered over Nadal, now Michael reached the last 32 and received a tourcard. Bravo, Yanni! link Symeonidis was again nnot mentioned at all. Amber alert for him?

Dutch Eagle Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 John Michael played at the UK Open and was eliminated in the first round by Scott Taylor of England. Michael lost 6-4 in legs. This tournament is played just in legs and not in games with legs like the worldchampionship. The average of Michael was 86.79 (3 darts). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Eagle Posted September 11, 2021 Author Share Posted September 11, 2021 John Michael and Veniamin Symeonidis represented Greece in the PDC World Cup of Darts. This is not an individual tournament but countries playing each other. Still with the same format. Starting with 501 and ending with a double. First player A of country X throws three darts, then player A of country Y, then player B of country X, then player B of country Y, then again player A of country X etc. till there is a finish with a double. Greece lost 5-2 to Belgium. 😔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
