Roes runs rampant as he secures first Development Tour crown at Event Five

Bradly Roes capped an incredible weekend on the PDC Winmau Development Tour in Milton Keynes on Sunday, as the young Dutchman won his first Development Tour title.

The fifth and final event of the weekend saw 323 players in action at Arena MK, as some of the sport's brightest young stars competed for Event Five glory.

The 20-year-old star rocketed himself up the order of merit after clinching his first title on the Winmau Development Tour circuit.

The 2021 JDC World Champion defeated English youngster Oliver Pearce-Burgess 5-3 in Sunday’s showpiece to claim the £2,500 top prize.

Roes began his campaign with a 4-1 victory over Bailey Martin, before seeing off Mitchell Leeming and Jannes Bremermann to book his place in the Last 32.

He then overcame Moreno Blom, beating his compatriot 4-2 before dispatching of Tour Card Holder Leon Weber to set up a captivating tie against Danny Jansen.

After defeating Danny Jansen and Charlie Manby - who recored an average of 130.70 the day prior - the Dutchman would go on to win four of the last five legs to beat Englishman Oliver Pearce-Burgess.

Pearce-Burgess impressed in reaching his maiden Development Tour final, dumping out Jamai van den Herik and Lennert Faes in Sunday’s latter stages

Following the opening weekend of Development Tour action, Greaves has claimed £5,375 in prize money after winning two out of the four events she participated in.

The Doncaster star is over £2,000 above her nearest challenger’s Owen Bates and Sebastian Bialecki, who also managed to pick up titles in Event One and Event Three respectively.

Events 6-10 will take place from March 28-30 at Mattioli Arena, Leicester. Entries are available through www.pdcplayers.com.

The top two players from the final 2025 Development Tour Order of Merit will win a PDC Tour Card for 2024-25 and a place in the 2025/26 World Darts Championship.
