Robert Wagner claimed the €1,200 first prize in an enthralling day of darts at the Hotel Tallukka, Vaasky, Finland.
The “Magician”, seeded 3rd in Saturday’s event moved into Pole Position in the SDC OOM overnight after impressive displays throughout the day.
Wagner eased passed Dane, Martin Jangeborn, 6 -2 in the first round before whitewashing Finn, Janne Kiiski, in the second. He then produced consistent displays disposing of Marko Kantele 6-4 and Tenho Markkanen 6-3 to set up a Semi Final showdown with the number 3 seed Jarkko Komula.
Finn, Komula, had been producing awesome darts all day and missed D12 for the perfect 9 dart finish in his Quart Final encounter with former Ladbrokes.com World Championship qualifier Petri Korte. Komula’s 9th dart rattled the wire and unfortunately he could not emulate Kim Jensen’s 9 dart finish in Copenhagen in June.
Norwegian Wagner, was victorious in their Semi Final after running out a 6-5 winner after a closely contested match with Komula.
He faced Finn, Ulf Ceder in the Final who himself had been producing some fine displays throughout the day. The number 4 seed knocked out Dane and 5th seed Alex Brian Jensen in the Quarter’s before edging out top Swede, Magnus Caris, 6-5 in the Semi’s.
Wagner won the live streamed Final 6-4 and brought to an end an entertaining Pro Tour in Finland.
