Darts thread

Open the thread to read about darts, then end up reading about office boys fluffing each other.

Fallon Sherrock has secured her return to the PDC World Darts Championship via the PDC Women's Series but has failed to qualify for the Grand Slam of Darts.

The PDC Women's Series concluded with Events 23 & 24 on Sunday, with the two tournaments also determining the qualification spots for the World Darts Championship and Grand Slam of Darts later this year.

Noa-Lynn van Leuven was already assured of a World Championship spot after beating Beau Greaves in Event 21 on Saturday, ensuring she would be the first trans player to feature at Alexandra Palace, with Sherrock securing the second spot via the PDC Women's Series Order of Merit.

They're all at the bar getting drinks in thinking they're winning the £60k for the 9 darter.

[neilnunb]

9 darter didn't help Kist - he's out.

 

Still, £60k in the bank for him.

So we are anti plastichorsehead now!!! Unbelievable!!! I actuslly tried to find another monkey mask pic as you know hipster beards n sh^yt but alas in my rush to post i could only find stormtrooper, ali g or this one. 

[neilnunb]

Well Michael Smith going out has cheered me up at least 😁

[neilnunb]

Littler needs to pull his socks up a wee bit here. 

[neilnunb]

Oh, so close to a 9 darter from Littler

[Sooperstar]

That was an unbelievable last set from Littler. 11, 10 and 11 dart legs to see it out.

[neilnunb]

Not sure what went on there but he was all emotional at the end. Lots of pressure/expectation on him obviously.

141 average in that set 

[neilnunb]

Heta close to a 9 darter 

 

Goes through against Scutt

 

 

[neilnunb]

Ross Smith in danger of going out, which should make the next round easier for Anderson...assuming he wins his match later.

[neilnunb]

Anderson having a shocker 🤦‍♂️

[heyjude1]

He sure is, will be lucky to stay in the competition now 

[neilnunb]

And he's out.  

 

First ever first round exit in the PDC World Champs.

 

Time to retire. 😬

Great match between Chisnall and Evans.

Easily one of the best matches the Ally Pally has ever seen. Had absolutely everything…even that miscount from Chizzy 😮 Evans was phenomenal though. Really really enjoyed that 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[Seaside Dave]

Superb from both chizzy and Evans. How cringy are some of the signs held up by so called dart fans fs 🤣🤣

[neilnunb]

Always like watching Evans play, even though he never wins tournaments. Just fires those darts, no messing. Not sure he even knows what he's doing half the time. 🤣

[neilnunb]

Rob Cross out.

 

Can't stand Williams tbh.

[jambo1975]

Cross seems like an absolute see you next Tuesday. Glad he went out. Evens winning highlight of the night. Wish they had a session tomorrow, it's been a great watch so far

[neilnunb]

Heta hit a nine darter earlier.

[neilnunb]

And then gets knocked out by Woodhouse 😁

[neilnunb]

Great game between Price and Cullen. Cullen saves the match with a 170 checkout. Last leg decider.

 

Price had been 3 sets up.

[neilnunb]

Price wins. Cullen fell apart that leg and had a bounce out

Yeah, Cullen can be a bit of a shitebag when it comes to the crunch.

[neilnunb]

That's a great win for Wright.

He's lucky he's not under more pressure down to White's shoddy finishing. Littler just playing in spurts so far.

White had the chances to level the game here fs 

[neilnunb]

Easy enough in the end but he'll need to be on his game against Joyce, who is a good finisher.

[Sooperstar]

That Robert Owen isn't particularly likeable.

Come on Wright! 

 

 

[AppleTarts]

Wright's doubles are unbelievable so far, 3-1.

[Seaside Dave]

World number 1 is in trouble here
