Stefan Bellmont's World Cup debut: fighting spirit despite a clear defeat!

Stefan Bellmont, the first Swiss participant in the Darts World Championship, lost his debut in London with 0: 3 disappointing against the favorite Jermaine Wattimena. The 35-year-old player from Cham could not convince when he appeared at Alexandra Palace, better known as "Ally Pally", even if he showed some impressive moments. According to nau.ch Bellmont scored the maximum score of 180 points five times. Nevertheless, the Dutch champion Wattimena dominated the game and gave the Swiss no chance.

strong opponent, strong performance

The first two sentences won Wattimena 3-1 and in the third set Bellmont was initially able to take the lead through an impressive series of 180 points and a break. Ultimately, however, Wattimena prevailed 3-2 in the last leg of the sentence, as in a report by watson.ch recorded. Bellmont's final average of 93 points per three arrows and a checkout rate of 36 percent reflect its solid performance. "It was really nerve -wracking," said Bellmont in an interview, "but I'm proud of my performance and experience."

Despite the defeat, many hope that Bellmont will be represented at further tournaments in the future, especially since the Darts World Championship will be increased from 96 to 128 players in the coming year. Bellmont has thrown the strong performance of the Dutch opponent out of the tournament, but expectations of his future appearances remain high. Bellmont plans to use his experiences with the Q school to secure a ticket for the PDC tour and thus continue to advance his career.
