Smith is now the highest ranked player left against a heap of tv chokers, players past their past etc, and I still think the "world#5" who has never won a thing of note will still find a way to lose this comp. If he fails to win this with so many top players gone out, i dont think he will ever win one and will be the new jenkins

As for the other, both heavy maximum hitters, both sketchy on doubles, but Ando has won big semi finals, smith you have to question his bottle. Think if durrant wins, he beats smith in the Final, but if he plays Ando, then Ando wins the final. Only way I see smith winning the title is if he plays dimi

He still loses the match....tell me Smith does not choke....he might be a great player, but has no minerals. And people wonder why he has never won a thing of note in his entire career. 32 legs took 1hour and ten minutes. The next game will take twice as long with durrant the slowest player in the PDC

The most sickening part was listening to the comms who were a disgrace in their obvious bias. When Durrant would break we heard how durrant was brilliant When dimi broke...silence. The kept telling us how Durrant never gives up and comes back ....really ? Other than coming back against players who choke on Telly like VvdV who has Durrant actually beat of note who has played well ? I think its a disgrace when comms are suppose to be impartial shows complete bias towards certain players, as they do MVG, Durrant and even Lewis, whilst others are treated lesser.

That'll disappear from the rankings in 5 months and he'll be in a more realistic spot then. Here's a thought though - Why not design your own ranking system and update it after each event? It could be a fun exercise and useful on your website. Maybe you can use points instead of money to reduce the WC loading, or change the weightings so that this years events are rated higher than last years. It's important to be honest though, if there comes a month when it's giving you a result you don't like then you can't tweak it.
