KYLE ANDERSON'S dominance of the DPA Australian Grand Prix circuit continued as he shared the spoils with James Bailey in the latest double-header weekend.
Anderson defeated Tic Bridge (pictured, left, with Anderson) in Saturday's event at the Nerang Darts Club on the Gold Coast, taking a 6-2 victory in the final.
He also reached Sunday's semi-finals before losing to eventual winner Bailey, meaning that he is now assured of qualifying as one of the three AGP Order of Merit players for August's Sydney Darts Masters event.
Anderson also leads the AGP standings by 108 points after moving to 208 points this year, more than double his closest rival Gordon Mathers, who has 100 points, and also clear of Bridge, who has totalled 92 - with the AGP Order of Merit winner also qualifying for the Ladbrokes World Darts Championship.
Anderson defeated Toke Hazel, Mitchell Turner, Jamie Rundle, Tony Shreeve and Bridge on his way to Saturday's victory.
Bridge took victory over Mathers in the semi-finals, with John Bunyard, Steve Duke Snr and Ian Dargan joining Rundle in the last eight.
Bailey's route to victory on Sunday saw him overcome Jason Higgins, Ron Holmes, Stuart Leach, Anderson and Rob Modra, who was defeated 6-2 in the final.
Modra overcame Bill Stanley, Arthur Jones, Steve Duke Jnr and Phil Whalan in the knockout stages, while Jones and Craig Prizeman were joined in the quarter-finals by Leach and Duke Snr, who reached that stage for the second successive day.
