World Series of Darts - Day Two - Semi-finals (Best of 21 Legs)

Semi-finals (Best of 21 Legs)

Both semi-finals would be won by comfortable margins.

In the first Dennis Priestley was given no chance by an imperial performance from Adrian Lewis. Lewis moved 3-0 up due to a 93 finish to open the game, followed by 11 and 12 dart legs to go three up. He began the fourth with a 180 but Priestley made it 3-1 with a double 8. Two clinical finishes from Lewis made the score 5-1 followed by a 14-darter to go 6-1 up and realistically have a foot in the final.

The next three legs went all the way to Lewis, meaning at the mid-match stage of 10 legs, Lewis held a 9-1 lead and required just two more from the final 11 to win. At this stage Lewis had a 58% checkout rate with 9 hits from 16 attempts as he turned the screw into the Yorkshireman - who had no answer as Lewis reached a peak average of 104. - Dennis The Menace had chances in the next two legs to cut the gap but Lewis took them to record an amazing 11-1 victory averaging 98.72 to Priestley's 82.97
