TERRY Temple took out three ton-plus finishes but still bowed out 6-4 to Dean Winstanley in the pick of the Dutch Darts Masters’ first round games.
The Whitwell-on-the-Hill ace threw 164, 136 and 120 checkouts, but former BDO world finalist Winstanley averaged 106.79, including an 11-dart leg and a 124 finish, to progress to the last 32 of the Veldhoven event, which was won by world number one Michael van Gerwen.
Winstanley went out 6-1 to Premier League star Wes Newton in round two.
