Slovenian star Matej Zagar won the final in Germany ahead of Slovak Martin Vaculik and the two Aussies: Doyle and 2012 world champion Chris Holder.
Doyle said: “It’s nice to bag a few points. But like I keep saying, you can have one bad round and be out of it, so I’m just keeping level-headed and scoring the points.”
Next up for the SGP stars is the Stockholm SGP at Friends Arena on September 23.
