Raman is the world number one of the WDF, the World Darts Federation, and thus the first seed at the World Cup to take place in the iconic Lakeside Country Club. His first match, Monday, was a thriller that he won 3-2 against Johnny Haines.
Wednesday went more smoothly for the friend and training mate of Dimitri Van den Bergh. Raman, who worked in the Albert Heijn van Brasschaat until last summer, threw an average of 97.47 against the Englishman Cole and steamed to a 3-0 victory. At a certain moment Raman got some booing, after which he put his index finger to his mouth after a nice finish.

Richard Veenstra also qualified for the quarterfinals. The Dutchman did that by beating the barely 15-year-old Luke Littler 3-0 and throwing an average of 104.91. A record for a World Cup held in Lakeside. With Andy Baetens, a second Belgian is also in the last sixteen of the ‘World Championship for semi-pros’. He won 3-1 against Dave Parletti.
