2023 World Matchplay

Draw has taken place today

This is one of my favourite tournaments. I can see Peter Wright being beaten in the first round. Dirk vD should do well in this; his form is good. I think I'll tip him for the win actually

US3

Jesus that quarter with MVG, Heta, Rock, Humphries and Dirk is mental.

US3

James Wade at 50/1 to win a tournament is something I never thought I'd see. He's played his best darts in years last week and has the nicer side of the draw. Think I'll have a 10r each way on him

Just looking at resale sites and prices are off the charts

Dillonb3

Comfortable for Cullen so far. Can't see too many upsets with the seeds

KevIRL

Cracking atmosphere there as always

Dillonb3

Cross in trouble

KevIRL

That was some enjoyable match.

What's the story with the fans.

They seem to be actually watching the darts.

ThebitterLemon

Cross is terribly inconsistent, pulls some great scores and co’s outta the bag and then a pile of crap handing the advantage back to his opponent. Last night was a typical example

TbL

How was Rock 16/1 with the bookies. Well beaten

US3

That's why wade was 50/1

PTH2009

Steve Beaton is some man to be still playing at the top level

This first match could be over quickly if Ratajski doesn't sort himself out lively.

Great 127 checkout from Rata to make it 3-2.

Rock is promoted to the nines. Even earlier today it was all Rock Rock Rock and not a word really about Heta who has actually won some stuff

Swaine

Aspinall imploding here?

The woman commentator is truly woeful, adds zero to it.

ThebitterLemon

Luke H playing extremely well

Definitely a danger in this tournament

TbL

Serious annihilation here from Cool Hand Luke.

Sadly it's Jose on the receiving end as I quite like him.

ThebitterLemon

Dolan has the perpetual demeanour of a man just about to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

TbL

Hopefully he can keep the head.

Sultan of Bling

5-4, should be 7-2

Dillonb3

Dolan letting MVG off the hook

Brutal finishing from Dolan in that ninth leg.

Dillonb3

Get in Dolan

PTH2009

Wow didn't expect that

Sultan of Bling

Brilliant from Dolan.

Thought he was gone when MVG got it back to 5 all.

KevIRL

Yuge performance that from dolan
