The opening weekend of the 2022 JDC Advanced Tour saw four different players claim victory as the race to the JDC Junior World Darts Championship began.
Luke Littler followed up his victory in the JDC Super 16 final in Milton Keynes last month with a win in Event One, as he defeated Leighton Bennett in a deciding leg in the final.
Bennett enjoyed a 102 average during Event Two as he this time went all the way, defeating Riley Rees Tucker in the final.
The Event Two runner-up picked up his first JDC Advanced Tour title as he defeated Jenson Walker in the Event Three final.
Event Four saw another different winner, as Derbyshire's Henry Coates defeated Bennett 6-5 in the decider, denying his teenage rival a second win of the weekend.
