"Deta Hedman is the most elegant player in my opinion...the way she walks to the oche, the way she throws her darts...it's almost erotic."

Wow! Did he mean to say that out loud? Who are your commentators by the way?

Norris is so erratic as always, i love watching him.

Yes he did  

 

Frank Vischschraper is the co-commentator, Jacques Nieuwlaat is our main darts commentator since a million years. Nieuwlaat is also the mastercaller at most events in the Netherlands and a few minutes ago he was talking about his professional "career":

 

In 2009 he was going to a Pro Tour event in Austria as driver of Roland Scholten (I guess you know him? He's often an analyst on Dutch TV nowadays). On Friday there was a qualifying tournament and, being there anyway, Nieuwlaat decided to enter it for fun. He qualified, then lost in the first round of the Pro Tour tournament on Saturday, like Scholten (against another well-known Dutchman, Vincent van der Voort). On Sunday Scholten lost out in the 1st round, but Nieuwlaat made the 2nd round so Scholten had to wait for his 'driver' to finish the tournament  (which he did in the 2nd round when losing 6-2 against John Part)

Yes I know Scholten, very fine player in his day .

I hadn't heard of Nieuwlaat though. Well that must have been a fun journey home with the driver outshining Scholten
