Great win for Mensur Suljovic who beat Gary Anderson 11-9 in the final. I saw this. He was absolutely delighted to win it.

 

He beat Anderson twice, Peter Wright, Barney and Chisnall in a thriller where he took out 160 to win it.

 

More antics from Phil Taylor against MvG in their group match there. Didn't look for him against Gary Anderson.

 

 

 

Anyone going to be watching the World Grand Prix on Sky Sports which kicks off on Sunday?

 

 

Me :D

 

Quite a few shocks so far in this! But there's always that chance in such a quickfire format. Draw is wide open, possibly time for Snakebite to win a big event & I think Gurney is definitely one to watch too.

World Grand Prix quarter final draw

 

John Henderson v Raymond van Barneveld

Robert Thornton v Daryl Gurney

Simon Whitlock v Benito van de Pas

Mensur Suljovic v Peter Wright

I think it is the first ever PDC televised ranking tournament that there hasn't been a player from England in it.

 

 

You would have got pretty incredible odds had you called that Semi Final line-up! I'm thinking it's gonna be a Gurney vs. Suljovic final myself, 2 players that have steadily been on the up for a good while now.

Congrats to Daryl Gurney, first major title. Was a great final too, deservedly going all the way into the final set.

What was that bump incident about at the end of the fourth set with Gurney bumping into Whitlock.

 

 

Love the darts, although haven't watched it in a long time sadly. ONE HUNDRED AND EIIIIIIIIGHTY!

Massive congratulations to Peter Wright on winning the German Darts Masters, 11-4 against The Power.

 

Just too long for Phil.
