JELLE KLAASEN edged a thrilling second round clash with Jamie Caven to reach the quarter-finals of the 2009 European Championships at the Claus Event Centre in Hoofddorp, Holland.
Klaasen and Caven plundered 13 maximums between them but Klaasen thought he had missed the chance to progress when he squandered darts to win both 9-7 and 9-8 only for Caven to narrowly miss the bull for a dramatic 135 checkout to win. The Dutchman composed himself to take out double four though to end a high-scoring contest against the in-form Derby man.

The young Dutch darter feels that his debut into this year’s Whyte & Mackay Premier Darts League has improved his dart game, despite some inconsistencies he suffered during the league’s progress.
“Even though I missed a lot of doubles in the Premier League I’ve been hitting them better in the other tournaments and I think I’m a better player now.”
“I enjoyed it very much. It’s hard with all the travelling but it has been a great experience and hopefully I’ll be back next year,” Klaasen remarked.
