Men's Darts PDC World Championship 2018

Wow, Van der Voort annihilates Beaton, 4-0, after destroying Chisnall 3-0 early on

Paul Lim comes up a few millimeters shy of hitting a nine dart finish, 27 years (!) after he made history by doing so on the Embassy in 1990

63 years old and throwing a 10 dart finish

Paul Lim, a total legend 

Anderson and Lim a pair of legends in fact, probably my two favourite players

Lim is such a nice guy. Now in the interview after the match "I should have worn my high heels, then I would have made the nine dart finish"  

 

The interview mostly consisted of "this has been such an honour" and "I am happy/this has been so much fun", I hope we'll keep seeing him for many years to come

Great guy, loved the high heels comment

 

I would love to see him play on the circuit more often, crazy to think how good he performed here with little preparation.

Agreed, too bad he's spending 99% of his time being a softtip/electronic darts player instead of steel tip

Fun bit of trivia, can you name the 3 nations he has represented?

Definitely Singapore and the USA, I'm doubting about the first one. My guess would be England because I heard him say today his journey started in London, but I can't recall him playing for England (I do recall him playing for Singapore and the USA, so I have no doubts about those)

You guessed the same as me and using the same logic

But no, actually it was USA, Singapore and Papua New Guinea!
