    Have any of the PDC 'majors' this low of a 1st prize?

    UK open was 70k up until last year.

    No dont think so, just looked Wright was 8th in the premier league in 2019 and received £50k.

    That opens up the debate of what's a major. Match play, Grand Prix, Grand Slam and World Championships for me.

    Pretty decent averages for the level. 86 & 87. Not too shabby for "amateurs" in my
    humble opinion. If 1 in 3 matches are like this in the early rounds, could be quite an
    entertaining comp. Hopefully

    Going by her photo Tori Kewish could be this year's pin up girl.
    Very attractive

    Missed the handshake/fistbump at the start. Animosity?

    For anyone who hasn't seen Beau Greeves play yet I highly recommend it. Shes on around 7:40 tonight. 14 years old. Your mind will be blown.

    Good call, playing real well so far. Hope you stuck a tenner/ or more on her.
    Fk me, she's good (comparatively) :)

    1st prize for men is £50k, I feel this is the end for BDO. This is like Vauxhall conference darts v premiership. Venue poor, cheap looking dartboards and to be fair and odd good player.

    Goodnight Vienna. Hopefully it's the end of Paul Nicholson as well as the BDO. He spouts some amount of crap. OK he's trying to talk up the BDO, but some of the stuff he is coming out with is ridiculous.

    Shes been beating the likes of Lisa Ashton an Fallon all year with ton or near averages. She played poor there by her high standards.


    That's the first game I watched, the lightning is atrocious, cant really see if darts are in treble or not, few 95s looked like 180s. How hard can it be to get that right like!

    "she's going to take some beating (Greaves) " sez Rawling. Will check oddschecker later,
    could well be the current favourite on that showing. Tori Kewish not exactly rubbish herself.

    He's no Part for sure. And Rawling's no John Gwynn (thanks R Hillman for telling me who he is).

    Personally I hope the BDO stays and somehow by some quirk of fate in years
    to come it might be the "New and improved BDO".

    Be nice for those who don't have sky and can at least watch an odd match on Quest..... Or maybe even back to BBC

    Enough of the effin morbid ruddy illness talk. It's supposed to be entertainment.

    Either that or racism or parity of pay.

    Bet John Gwynn will have no pc crap to say during Williams' match.

    Please be up next John...
