2020 UK Open

US2

Starting this weekend. Like this tournament always a chance to see some new faces. Open draw so very hard to predict anything, hope price wins it if an Irishman cant.

Decent stage line up for itv4, stage 2 on pdc.tv

I give Sherrock a very good chance versus McKinstry - however being on early in the day will help him as the crowd will be sober and less booing.

It's a pity its not just an open draw from the first round - also players have to win 2 matches to win any prize money - really stacked against the outsiders/qualifiers.

Also I would lengthen the earlier rounds to first to 6, rather than first to 5, and shorten the later rounds. After Friday afternoon session is complete it's a first to 10, and the novelty of this tournament is gone, with only 1 session of 6 complete.

Both Ciaran Teehan and Lisa Ashton knocked out in first round. Both finding life tough on the PDC tour.

Chizzy in the next round for Willie. The main stage looks good for tonight. Price v Noppert, Durrant v Wright, MvG v Aspinall, Anderson v Beaton.

There's an 18 year old qualifier L Williams who's drawn against Steve West. One to keep an eye out for

Epic bottle job from Willie.

PillarToPost

Embarrassing from O'connor

Munsterbhoy

10 9 to Gurney. Willie had 3 in his hand at tops to win, sickner for him. His doubles really let him down..

Dear oh dear Willie, 7-1 up and losing is bad stuff.

Not the first time he’s lost decent leads, really needs to work on the mental side of his game
