Dean Reynolds continued his recent hot streak in the world of darts by capturing the England Classic title in Selsey this evening.
The Welshman, who only last weekend guaranteed himself a two-year tour card with the PDC after topping the final Order of Merit for this year’s Unicorn Development Tour, beat Scott Baker 6-3 in the final of the Category A+ event.
Reynolds finished with a one dart average of 32.42 as he got the better of England’s Baker, who was making his second appearance in a BDO final this year.
Lisa Ashton rounded off a successful weekend by winning the England Classic ladies title.
After edging past Deta Hedman in a decider to secure the England Matchplay crown earlier in the day, Ashton beat the same player in the England Classic final, this time with a more comfortable 5-2 scoreline.
