I stopped watching at 9-5 or something, looks like it didn't get any more exciting afterwards. 

 

At least Wright has shown again that he is in fantastic shape and if anyone can beat MVG at the World Championships, it's Wright or Anderson. All other players need a combination of one of their best days ina very long time + a bad day for MVG

Nah, there are only 2 players that can beat MVG and they are Taylor and Barney. He always has some second thoughts when he playes them, which leads to a shaky game by him. It doesn't help either that Barney always brings his best game against him.  Ando is very so-so and it seems he always loses to MVG in the big tournays lately. I'm not so confident in him.

Anderson always has that extra gear at world championships, I still see him as co-favourite with MVG and Wright  

 

Taylor is declining faster and faster and although one should of course never write him off, the chance of him performing at a high enough level to beat Van Gerwen gets smaller every time. Of course he can beat MVG, and so can Van Barneveld, but I'd say the chance of them doing so is lower than the chance of Wright or Anderson doing so  

 

In the end of course everyone can theoretically beat anyone

Paralympic darts between Cullen and Van Barneveld at the PC Finals at the moment. Especially Cullen is playing criminally bad with an average that's barely above 70..

 

Ah it's over, 10-2, this was horrible

Webster starts with 5-0 against Van Gerwen  

 

That's cool, because now Van Gerwen will come back angry as f*ck after the break and hit 3 180's per leg

A wasp f*cking up the match  

 

Eventually in the break it was on Webster's back, Van Gerwen hit it to the floor and George Noble came and prepared the funeral  

[heywoodu 16,431]

Van Gerwen won  

 

Another "major" on the list.

Interesting qualifiers for the women's tournament at Lakeside. For example, representing Canada, we've got oldie Patricia Farrell who, not joking, can barely reach the T20  

 

 

 

 

There's also Casey Gallagher, who apparently tries to seduce viewers by licking her lips every time she throws:
