SIMON WHITLOCK continued his recent progress by reaching the semi-finals of the German Darts Masters in Jena on Easter weekend.
Australian ace Whitlock has won five titles in the last six months, including Players Championship events and UK Open qualifiers, and has now enjoyed his best run on stage in that period.
“I’m really happy to have played well on stage again,” said former European Champion Whitlock.
“I ran into Michael van Gerwen at his best but I had some great wins along the way and it bodes well for the rest of the season.
“I’m getting better and better.”
