#437: Samuel Price, Kaya Baysal, ProTour and Dutch Open Reviews

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast after the first PDC ProTour events of 2026! The boys start the show with a brand-new game as Burton attempts to predict the quarter-final results of this week's Premier League night in Antwerp the day after with no prior knowledge of the results! Alex and Burton then take a look back at this week's Players Championship double-header in Germany and focus on the two title winners James Wade and Wessel Nijman. New PDC tour card holder Samuel Price (24:44) joins the show to look back on a dramatic UK Q-School, which saw him secure a tour card on the final day as one of the top-up players from the First Stage Order of Merit. Samuel talks through his time in the game so far, from how he first got introduced to darts and then taking a break after suffering with dartitis, to making a comeback during lockdown, the influence of the ADC and UKDA in improving his game and a memorable start to 2026 that saw him become a PDC tour card holder for the first time. Alex and Burton continue their review of the last week in darts and look back on the Dutch Open, which saw Germany's Paul Krohne and home favourite Priscilla Steenbergen win the two main titles in Assen. The newly crowned Junior World Masters champion Kaya Baysal (1:07:18) calls in to reflect on his landmark win in Milton Keynes last month. The teenager looks back on a whirlwind last 12 months which saw him make history as the youngest winner of a WDF senior title in Hungary, breaking Luke Littler's record, play in youth events on the Lakeside and Alexandra Palace stages, and then defeat Mitchell Lawrie in the final of the inaugural Junior World Masters on the Arena MK stage just a few weeks ago. The boys wrap up the show with a dip into the mailbag to answer your listeners questions. Join the Darts Strava King group on Strava
