The 15th ADA International Darts Tour - Conclusion

    

  The 15th ADA International Darts Tour has been a great success, especially the number of participants. We surpassed the number of participants compared to previous year already during the early bird period, this is a big achievement for us. We have for this year partnered up with many different new sponsors to make this tournament even better and assisting us to create an unforgettable weekend for the players. We hereby would like to thank all sponsors, players and organizer for making this tournament possible.

      It is very well known that Asia Darts Association has been heavily invested to support youth players and for this year, we continued to team up with Target and took it to the next level. Instead of one Youth Division, we have divided into two, Youth 16 and Youth 23. The winner for the Youth 16 is Kuang Xunxu from China, Youth 23 Male winner is Declan Bailey from Australia and Youth 23 Female winner is Lee I Kiu from Hong Kong.

      There have been several big highlights during 3 days tournament. One of them is Thanawat Gaveenuntawong from Thailand winning his 3rd Super One Men’s Champion title for 3 consecutive years in a row! This has never happened in ADA Tour’s history. By winning the tournament 3 times, Thanawat was awarded the special Super One trophy. As for the Super One Ladies, China’s Zhou Momo won against Vivienne Lee from Hong Kong to take the title. Another highlight was that for the first time, the local team Hong Kong took the World Cup International Team Challenge title. Another history has been made moment is during the Triples 701 Final, Christian Perez, Noel Malicdem and Paolo Nebrida from Philippines became the first team to complete a 14 Darts Finish in a final game and earned HK$50000 as a prize.

      During the tournament, many great matches have been played and many of them have been recorded. We will release them to the public once edited. Please keep an eye on our Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Asiadarts and https://www.youtube.com/asiadarts for the videos.

      After the 3 days marathon tournament, we hosted the tradition dinner party with all the players, operators and sponsors. A Chinese style banquet dinner was served with unlimited supply of beer, wine, lucky draws and fun games. As for the MVP presentation, the Asian player both for female and male that has earned the most points depending on their placements through different events was also presented. The female MVP is Zhou Momo from China, for the men, it is Lourence Ilagan from Philippines.

      We would like to thank all of our players, organizers and leaders that brought teams and players for making this traditional tournament possible. A special thanks to all the sponsors for supporting us. For the future, we will analyze and do our best to run the tournament even more smoothly for you. The 16th ADA International Darts Tour will be even bigger! See you next year!
