Cam Crabtree continued his brilliant form from Friday, as the English born star picked up his second title of the weekend, whilst Jurjen van der Velde entered the winning circle once again.
The third weekend of Development Tour action continued with another double-header taking place at Halle 39 in Hildesheim, with Crabtree victorious once again, blitzing through the 292-player field to claim Saturday’s opener.
The 21-year-old picked up his second Development Tour title in two days with a 5-1 victory over compatriot Patrik Williams.
Crabtree - who recently secured his tour card in January at Qualifying School - raced into a 3-0 lead against Williams.
The Croydon-based star did not let Williams consolation leg affect him, as he won the last two legs in quick succession and ran out a 5-1 victor.
Crabtree raced into the Last 32, only dropping one leg, as he beat Cian McCormack and Axel Savelkoel 4-0 respectively, before beating previous Development Tour winner Ryan Branley 4-1 in the Last 128.
In the Last 32, Denfie Drenthen would win the opening leg in his contest against Crabtree, but the Englishman walked away a 4-2 victor, before beating Viktor Tingstrom 4-3 in a last-leg decider.
After this, Crabtree would go on to beat Order of Merit leader Beau Greaves in a thrilling contest, beating the Doncaster-born star 5-4, before seeing off a fellow Tour Card holder Tavis Dudeney in the same scoreline in the semi-final, before going on to claim double titles in quick succession.
Jurjen van der Velde - who suffered an early exit in the first tournament of the day - managed to beat Henry Coates 5-4 in a last-leg decider in the second tournament of the day.
Coates - who made his debut at the UK Open earlier this year - raced into a 2-0 lead over the young Dutchman, as the Englishman won back-to-back legs in 14 and 17 darts, but Van der Velde responded in excellent fashion to level the game up at two a-piece.
Van der Velde then won three out of the next five legs in darts of 15, 19 and 16 to secure his fourth Development Tour title.
The 22-year-old Dutchman kicked off his Event 14 campaign with back-to-back whitewash victories over Liam Maendl-Lawrence and Viktor Tingstrom respectively, before beating Kimi Seemann 4-3 and Huey de Jong 4-1 to book his place in the Last 16.
Van der Velde then produced his best average of the event, as he beat Challenge Tour winner Jamai van den Herik 4-0 with an average just over 100.
Florian Preis and Ronan McDonagh both fell short of beating Van der Velde, as they both succumbed to 5-2 defeats, as the former Tour Card holder raced to the £2,500 top prize.
The 2025 Winmau Development Tour season concludes on Sunday with Event 15, as the remaining 285-player field will look to battle it out for the final title of the weekend.
The top two players from the 2025 Development Tour Order of Merit will each win a PDC Tour Card for 2026-27 and a place in the 2025/26 Paddy Power World Darts Championship.
As a result of Friday and Saturday’s performances, Crabtree has moved into second on the Development Tour Order of Merit, with Greaves still occupying top spot.
