A look back at the history of the fifteenth night of the PDC Home Tour, which saw Darren Webster come to victory

Darren Webster justified being the PDC Home Tour Group 15 favorite on Friday night with three wins out of three to advance to the next round.

The 51-year veteran showed off his fighting qualities, coming from losing positions in two of his games while completing an impressive clean sweep.

PDC Home Tour – Friday Schedule (Group 15)

Darren Webster 5-4 Bradley Brooks
Scott Baker 5-4 Andy Hamilton
Bradley Brooks 3-5 Andy Hamilton
Darren Webster 5-2 Scott Baker
Scott Baker 1-5 Bradley Brooks
Andy Hamilton 3-5 Darren Webster

Webster recorded a remarkable comeback in the first game of the night. The favorite started with a great score, but had problems in the finishes.

He found himself 0-3 and 1-4 back when Brooks, 20, made the most of it. From there, however, the Demolition Man found his way and became the first player on the PDC Home Tour to recover from a 4-1 deficit to win 5-4.

The comebacks continued in the second game as former World Championship finalist Andy Hamilton led at all times but was unable to break the line as Scott Baker posted a 14-darter in the deciding to snatch it 5-4.

The Hammer immediately made amends, however, hit 118 and 124 payouts en route to a 5-3 victory to eliminate Brooks.

The Demolition Man took the win from a losing position for the second time that night, winning five legs in a row to beat Baker 5-2.

Baker needed a big win in his final game to give himself a chance to progress, but was met by a determined Brooks who made sure not to be shutout with a 5-1 win.

The group came to a final shootout between Hamilton and Webster, and the latter only needed four legs to seal the top spot.

Player 27 of the Order of Merit got off to a dream start, broke the Hammer and took a 2-0 lead.

Although Hamilton was given a life buoy with a checkout of 104, but the Demolition Man went ahead and sealed a 5-3 victory.
