    Gurney hammered Noppert.

    Anderson/MvG shaping up to be a titanic tussle

    That was a strange look that mvg gave the board when he was walking off

    Surely DvdB is a bit old to be still a youth? He's 24 and won this last year!

    Yep, Mason said it at the start of the coverage, pretty ridiculous tbh.

    Should be giving genuine “youth” an opportunity on the big stage.

    Never got going till the last 4 legs or so. Well done Gurney, stayed in touch and did very well to close it out.

    The old saying, Scores for show and doubles for dough.

    Gurney was brilliant on the doubles

    Thanks.

    Wasn’t it only a few weeks ago that MvG was saying that Gurney wasn’t a top 8 player. Lol.

    Worlds gonna be really interesting this year

    Worlds will be interesting as top dogs are looking vulnerable and draw tomorrow will be interesting, Lisa Ashton for long shot:pac:

    Crowd were behind Gurney for a change, so its up to him now to keep it that way.

    MVG's scoring on the first three darts per leg was awful in both of his matches today

    So many players in form, Wade, Suljovic, Price, Anderson, MvG and then there’s a large number of “second tier” of players who are really playing well.

    Don’t think Wright or Cross will be in the shake up.

    If MvG’s odds improve I might put a few quod on him as he’ll be harder to beat over the longer format.

    TbL

    Edit: he’s 8/5 still very poor odds

    MvG has had his troubles in set play though and he isn't the invincible force this year he was in 2017. Deserves to be favourite but there are plenty who'll fancy their chances this year. I reckon it could be Big John Henderson's year at last.

    Henderson looks so unhealthy he’ll be lucky to make it to January 🀣
