ET3

I'll hold off on an FRH rankings update until after this weekend, but it's quickly back into action with more Euro Tour goodness, Nijman binked and is now up above Wattimena into the top 15, let's see how things continue.

Zonneveld/Haavisto - no projection (insufficient data on Haavisto)
Woodhouse/Devroey - no projection (no data on Devroey)
Williams/Evans - 49/35/45/43
Joyce/Gawlas - 33/44/52/43
Menzies/Lap - 61 (only long data on Lap)
O'Connor/Thorpe - 65/65/65 (insufficient short data on Thorpe)
Meikle/Schweyen - no projection (insufficient data on Schweyen)
Smith/Mansell - 68/56/64/62

Chisnall/Tricole - 42/49/62/51
Ratajski/Reyes - 71/59/60/63
Cullen/Baetens - 36/49/43 (insufficient short data on Baetens)
Nijman/Bialecki - 81/81/77/80
van Barneveld/Krcmar - no projection (insufficient data on Krcmar)
Gurney/White - 70/57/59/62
Springer/Huybrechts - 51/52/58/54
van Duijvenbode/Wenig - 70/70/77/72

Of those we don't have data on, the two in the latter session are known quantities, Baetens is obviously good and didn't drop below 90 from the last 64 in the quali, and I think with how Barney's playing Krcmar will have more than enough chances, although he was a bit more up and down in his quali (although that was two months ago). In the afternoon session, Haavisto returns after fuck knows how long, hit a couple of 90's early in his quali but was mostly in the mid 80's. Devroey is a brand new name to me who barely scraped into the eighties a couple of times and seems to have got a pretty favourable draw throughout. Lap and Thorpe are new card holders that have had a bit of a slow start and didn't appear that often in 2025, while Schweyen is a WDF worlds quarter finalist who we've seen get through these a couple of times before, had a big 98 average in the semis but that was a bit of an outlier, typically again in the mid 80's. Could be a couple of interesting spots as we've got quite a few players in indifferent form. Back in the evening tomorrow to sort round two.
