February 2026 at the Modus Super Series was a month packed with thrilling darts action and standout performances. We saw newcomers make their mark, seasoned pros return, and intense battles for weekly titles. Radek Szaganski kicked off the month with a spectacular debut victory in Week 3. Derek Coulson showcased dominant form in Week 4, securing a convincing win. Week 5 marked the triumphant return of Graham Hall, who battled through tough competition to claim the top prize. Finally, Week 6 saw Scott Taylor earn his fifth Champions Week spot, capping off a month filled with drama, including the return of darts legends like Simon Whitlock and Ron Meulenkamp. The excitement continues into March, with a new champion set to be crowned on April 18th.

Week 3: Szaganski’s Stunning Debut Win

The third week of February promised close contests, and it delivered! On Day 1, Group A saw Patrik Williams, Radek Szaganski, and Steve Lennon all tied with 4 wins from 5 matches. Williams ultimately edged out his rivals to secure Group A with 11 wins, just ahead of Szaganski (10 wins) and Lennon (9 wins).

Radek Szaganski continued his impressive run, going one better in Group B to secure his spot in Finals Night. Group C was another nail-biter, with Lewis Gurney narrowly triumphing over Scott Campbell and WDF Youth World Championship semi-finalist Archie Self.

Finals Night Drama: Szaganski vs. Wilson

Szaganski carved an unbeaten path through Finals Night, impressively defeating Paul Hogan, Lewis Gurney, and Archie Self to reach the grand final. However, he wasn’t alone in his dominance. Carl Wilson emerged unexpectedly, defeating Archie Self, Patrik Williams, and Lewis Gurney to set up a fascinating £5,000 showdown against Szaganski.

In a compelling finale, Radek Szaganski triumphed 4-2 over Carl Wilson on his Live Lounge debut. Szaganski’s dominant performance, particularly on the outer ring, sealed his victory and marked a memorable start to his Modus Super Series journey.

Week 4: Derek Coulson’s Dominant Performance

Week 4 began similarly to Week 3, with just two wins separating the top four players in Group A. Derek Coulson stood out as the best of the bunch, advancing to Finals Night with an impressive +25 leg difference, ahead of Robbie Martin, Jamie Owens, and Jamie Hughes.

In Group B, Robbie Martin and Jamie Owens tied for the top spot, both securing their places in Finals Night alongside Colin Osborne. Group C saw Ashley Coleman deliver a strong performance, winning 8 out of 10 matches to finish ahead of Tom Lonsdale.

Coulson Shines in Tense Finals Night

Finals Night was filled with suspense, as half of all matches went down to a deciding leg. Amidst the tension, Derek Coulson shone brightest. He navigated an unbeaten path, overcoming Tom Lonsdale, Jamie Owens, and Colin Osborne. His most dominant victory of the evening came in the final, where he secured a convincing 4-1 win over Robbie Martin, cementing his place as the week’s champion.

Week 5: Graham Hall’s Triumphant Return

Week 5 welcomed back a familiar face to the Live Lounge: Andy Baetens. The former WDF World Champion returned after a two-year spell with a PDC tour card, consistently averaging over 95 and winning 4 out of 5 matches on the opening day. However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing for Baetens, as Graham Hall fought back remarkably, winning 8 of his next 10 matches to pip Baetens for first place in Group A.

The week also saw a rare feat of consistent dominance: Mike Warburton and Alex Williams both achieved perfect, unbeaten records in Groups B and C respectively. This significantly raised the stakes for Finals Night, especially when both unbeaten players were drawn into the same group. In a crucial match, Williams defeated Warburton 4-2, knocking him out of contention for the weekly title.

Hall Claims the £5,000 Prize

Graham Hall continued his strong form, winning both of his group matches to advance to the weekly semi-finals. There, both he and Alex Williams delivered dominant performances, securing 4-0 whitewash wins against Butch Devine and Justin Smith respectively. These victories set the stage for a tense finale.

In a hard-fought battle, Graham Hall emerged victorious with a 4-2 win over Alex Williams, claiming the £5,000 prize money and securing his coveted spot in Champions Week.

Week 6: Taylor’s Fifth Champions Week Spot Amidst Star Returns

Week 6 brought more star power, with Simon “The Wizard” Whitlock returning to the Live Lounge for the first time since winning the Modus Seniors Showdown in January. Whitlock maintained his hot streak, winning 12 of 15 matches in Group A. However, it was another former PDC star, Ron Meulenkamp, who took pole position in Group A with an outstanding 13 wins from 15, advancing directly to Finals Night.

This meant Whitlock advanced to Group B – where he faced a unique challenge: his son, Mason Whitlock! Reece Robinson eventually topped Group B with 7 wins from 8, but Whitlock Sr. also advanced to Finals Night, finishing third. In their highly anticipated clashes, The Wizard convincingly beat The Apprentice by a combined 8 legs to 1 across their two matches.

Another former PDC star, Matt Dennant, made a strong return after losing his tour card at the end of 2025. Dennant was in imperious form, sweeping through Group C with a perfect 10 out of 10 record to advance to Finals Night. However, his impressive run faltered with a 4-2 loss to Simon Whitlock in the group stages, and came to a definitive halt in the semi-finals when Scott Taylor defeated him by the same 4-2 scoreline.

Scott Taylor Secures His Spot

In the semi-finals, Reece Robinson secured a convincing 4-1 win over Ron Meulenkamp to reach the final. However, it was Scott Taylor who held firm in the final, securing a 4-2 victory and advancing to Champions Week for an impressive fifth time.

Looking Ahead: The Road to the Championship

Series 13 of the Modus Super Series promises continued excitement throughout March, with the ultimate climax being the crowning of a new champion on April 18th. Stay tuned for more thrilling darts action as the competition intensifies!
