Netherlands is the biggest market for darts right after the UK and Ireland and also has some of the very best players in the world. Though currently Germany is also on the rise and will probably overtake the Netherlands, once there is a German icon in darts, like Raymond van Barneveld or Michael van Gerven are for the Netherlands.

You've got a couple of VERY promising guys right now. Max Hopp is going to have to improve his game significantly in order to stay near the top of German players
