Some class checkouts so far

Littler over Dolan
Humphries over Chisnall
Gurney over Cross
Van Gerwin over Williams


Gotta hope the 16 year old Spurs fan makes this happen. Amazing story

Littler won easily again, the kid is amazing.

Guerney was up 4-0 in a race to 5.......and lost the last 5 legs. Heartbreaking

Williams with the upset over MVG and now he gets Humphries today.

I have to take Littler and Humphries today.

"The Nuke" is 100% the right nickname - sensational!

Does anyone know what his pre-tournament win bet was?

I am not sure how accurate this website is, but it shows 66-1

world-darts-championship-betting-odds

He has averaged over 100 in all but one of his matches. I've only been following darts a few years, but when all the players are saying he is the best they have ever seen, you have to go with that.

interesting note......he has a 21-year old girlfriend. Since the age of consent in the UK is 16, it's not an issue.....but I would think that would be an issue in the US for many. :)

In the finals, he will have to beat the world #1. If he does that, I can't think of another sporting comparison. Humphries is on absolute fire and if it wasn't for Liitler, all the talk would be about his form

Littler takes Bahrain and has a 9 darter to boot. (Earlier in the tournament)

Stephen Bunting is one of the most popular people on the tour. He's 38 and has been on the tour since the age of 18 and has won some minor tournaments, but none of the biggie. Michael Van Gerwin turned pro the same year though he is a few years younger. Since then, Van Gerwin has won over 40 major titles while Bunting has won none. MG was 22-4 against Bunting going into yesterdays finals yesterday at Milton Keynes.

World Cup of Darts start today in Frankfort. I should have realized this well before it was too late to perhaps see a Euro match and some WCof Darts.

Really good stuff last night as we are to the QF now



The Belgian team HATE each other. They have gone from being good friends to absolute enemies......but as a team they play well together, somehow.

The World Championships are down to the final 32 and only 18 seeds are left, lots of upsets so far. Both Lukes, Humphies and Littler are on the same side of the bracket, and they are the 2 favorites. 18 year old Littler is going to dominate this sport......unless this years junior champion is going to be even better. 13 year old Lex Paeshuyse won easily and he may be the next Tiger Woods just 1 year after the last Tiger Woods arrived

They gotta figure out how to get this onto a normal streaming service. I mean, the whole thing is propped up by Sky (Comcast), but they can't negotiate rights for Peacock as part of that?

I got into this thing like 10 years ago when I stumbled upon it on BBC America. That's not happening for anyone now. PDC are brutal marketers.

Last year I paid for the month of PDC.TV, but I haven't bothered yet, been too busy to commit since I wouldn't have been able to watch much yet.
