Sunday's games played in Draw Bracket order

Krzysztof Ratajski made history as he became the first Polish winner on the European Tour by defeating Dave Chisnall 8-2 in the Gibraltar Darts Trophy final on Sunday night.
 
Having never previously won past the quarter-finals on the European Tour, Ratajski saw off Joe Cullen, Ian White and Daryl Gurney to secure his spot in the decider in Gibraltar.
 
Chisnall, who hit a nine-darter in his quarter-final clash with James Wade, took the opening two legs of the final, including a 117 finish to break the Pole's throw.
 
Ratajski, however, then made no mistake in breaking straight back with an incredible 124 finish, followed by a hold of throw to level the scores at 2-2.
 
From there the Polish ace took control of the match, reeling off a further six legs on the spin to claim the £25,000 title and make history for East European darts.
 
"It's incredible, I still don't believe it," said Ratajski, who averaged 102.85 in the final.
 
"I've won floor tournaments but this is the first one I've won in front of a crowd.
 
"This is a great night for Polish darts and I'm just so happy to lift this title."
 
Danish Darts Open Champion Chisnall cane close to adding a second European Tour title to his 2019 trophy haul.
 
Chisnall defeated Jermaine Wattimena 6-4 in the third round before striking perfection in a 6-4 victory over Wade.
 
It then took a last-leg decider to see Chisnall reach his second European Tour title of 2019 as he edged past Nathan Aspinall 7-6 in the semi-finals.
 
"Krzysztof played very well all day like I did but tonight the better player won," said Chisnall.
 
"Darts is all on the day but it wasn't my day today,  he played very well.
 
"I'm glad to hit a nine-darter for this crowd but tonight is about Krzysztof."
