    Suljovic hard to watch and Taylor very very hard to listen to, tough night so far

    Hopefully he does - Wright is coming out with some awful guff this week, which is a shame cos he's playing some great darts

    Always thought Wright lacked enough mental toughness to be a consistent major tournament winner.

    I can't believe I'm saying it but I quite like Taylor on commentary

    Is it just me or is Mensur even more wild on some of his throws than usual?

    Must be odd for him knowing he could go down and beat the two fellas playing.

    Woeful standard in this game.

    Cannot believe how bad Wright has been.

    Wright’s been mouthing all week so chuffed to see him gone.

    Mensur would beat Anderson in the final I think, has a great record against him.

    No idea what would happen against de Zwaan

    I find it odd that Mensur has only ever reached the last 16 at the worlds, seems to have made the semis at least in most of the other big tournaments

    Nearly twice as fast as the last game.

    Suljovics style will annoy the **** out of either of these

    Anderson's dislike of playing Mensur is well known.
    He makes no secret of it.

    Yes but he also seems to respect MS.

    Whoever ends up in the final there'll definitely be a contrast in throwing styles :)

    Great game. Fancy Mensur now only because it's Anderson. Would love to see Suljovic win a proper major. His form over last 3 years deserves it.

    Class act Anderson
    De Zwaan played great, hopefully he can carry that form forward

    You'd think Ando should win now, but.....it's Suljovic...

    Great win for Gary, will be a very interesting final

    If JdZ can get through at least a round of anoter couple of majors he’ll be nailed on for the Premier Leaghe

    Hoping Anderson wins it, Mensur seems like a lovely guy but his throwing style melts my head 😀

    Missed doubles for Mensur will be his downfall. He's gone from calm and focussed to getting a bit animated over the misses.
