Thanks for the info Neo. Documentury about Taylor follows that. Here is a discription of that show.

Quote:
Profiling the brilliant career of darts maestro Phil Taylor, regarded by followers as the game's greatest ever player, and who won the World Championship no less than 13 times. The programme provides an insight into his life, including the truth behind his love of Stoke, the secrets of his technique, and the influence of a mother who told him second was nowhere

Thought thursday evening would be boring as ever. Thank God:)

Phil Taylor 5-1 Jacko Barry
Robert Thornton 5-3 John Part
Mensur Suljovic 5-1 Roland Scholten
Ronnie Baxter 6-4 Vincent van der Voort

Some good games tonight, with good comebacks from Walsh, King and Baxter. Scholten never showed up due to shoulder problems and Taylor came out of the blocks quick against Barry. Close game with Thornton and Part. Part will have to up his game alot if he wants a good run in the GSOD and the World Championships.

Andy Hamilton v Denis Ovens

Lewis just trashed barney 9-2, Manley just beat tabern 9-4
Taylor won 9-4 i think and Thornton won but im not sure the score

Semi finals

Thornton - Taylor
Lewis - Manley

Arrows start at 6:15 i believe for the semi's

9pm for the final

Taylor wins the tournament by beating Lewis 11-5 in the final. Taylor averaged over 113 in two of his matches, the man just keeps on getting better, Lewis had a 108 average in hammering Barney and Thornton had a very good tournament reaching the semi-finals and moving closer to the top 32.

I didn't get to see any of the darts but it sounds like it was a decent tournament.
