3 titles in a row now for Smith, and his second TV title
In fairness to him he's on some run. The issue is that the titles he's winning are Euro Tour events and non-ranking tournaments. He'll be forever questioned until he wins a TV major.
As an aside, I wonder are the PDC regretting putting Fallon Sherrock in all the World Series events. That 71 average isn't that out of character for her going by women's tour and WDF events. She regularly averages in the 70s.
Sad news. First man to hit a live televised 9 darter
His mother only passed away last month. RIP
Once he breaks that duck he'll start cleaning up I have no doubt about that and as for Sherrock its time she was put out to pasture now at this stage the novelty has well and truly worn off. If they are looking for a female superstar they should be promoting Beau Greaves who has the potential to be a proper superstar.
Nordic Masters is on this week. Fallon draws one of the 3 tour card holders Darius Labanuaskas
Alot of darts coming up with the Premier league tonight, pro tour tomorrow and Wednesday then the world Cup on Thursday.
Can't recall someone winning 5 tournaments in as short a time as Smith just has, he's on fire. Can't wait for the Matchplay!
Impressive no doubt but can we do it on the big stage
Thought the point of the world series is to promote the game far away with the world's best players. Its on in Holland tonight and one of the "pdc superstars" averaged 72
Go away sherrock......................
No idea why they need a Dutch series if the World Series is to promote the game around the world.
All the seeds getting dumped out at the minute
The first 12 events of the Women's Tour have been completed so we now know the 8 qualifiers for the first ever Women's World Matchplay. Good news on the Irish front is that Irish player Katie Sheldon has qualified as she is currently 7th the rankings.
Here's the full list:
John Gwynne passed away last night after a long battle with cancer. R.I.P John
Aww bless him the last of the 3,Dave panning Sid and now John.
RIP John

Unbelievable.
What was the world record he was close to? Highest average?
Yeah highest average. Peter Wright currently holds it. I think Rock actually missed 5 darts at double in the match so it could have been a fair bit higher.
Mvg highest average 123.34 in premier league few yrs back
MVG holds the highest televised average. Peter Wright has the highest average overall as he did 123.5 in a Players Championships event in 2019.
Six 9 darters in the last three days between the PC and ET events. Some going.
Jack Main jist hit another one today. He hit one yesterday aswell. Crazy
Just realized there was a world series event over the weekend. Not that it means much but looks like van gerwen is back to dominating the Tv events . Still don't think he's anywhere near 100% though
Yeah, there's another one on this weekend and then another the following weekend! You're forgiven for forgetting about it as they are absolutely pointless.
A couple of things of note though, MvG definitely has his confidence back as he's picking up titles despite not playing his best. Michael Smith continues to lose matches he's expected to win.
Fallon Sherrock continues to have 'off days' according to commentators as she continually gets beaten with averages in the 70's. I actually think having her in these tournaments is doing her no favours at this stage.
Beau Greaves wins the women's series event on her debut
She won all 4 events this weekend. What a player! Wonder will she be shoe horned into the world series next year...
She'd be far more competitive than the golden girl that's for sure an incredible talent at only 18 years of age.
Top 2 in Women's order of merit qualify for Worlds, wonder if Fallon could end up regretting going to the recent world series event. Only 4 more events are left
