Whitlock`s scoring,phew,and he just seems as cool as a cucumber whilst doing it.

I do not think I have ever seen anyone handle the pressure as well as he did. Just got on with the game, ignored Wade geeing up the crowd and threw some great darts...total respect to him.

5-0 Taylor.

Well, who'd have thought that? Once against, Lewis is all mouth and no action.

I have to agree that Taylor was outstanding but I wouldn't exactly say that Lewis bottled it. With his match stats tonight he would have beaten pretty much anyone else in the competition (less Whitlock) and Taylor would have beaten all comers. Lewis wasn't all mouth, he was confident (as he should be otherwise why turn up?), also plenty of action just beaten by an fantastic player.

Have to agree. In any other match, Lewis with those averages, would have come out a winner. Just beaten by a better player on the night, proving once again that Taylor retains the ability to up his game when he needs to.

If he sticks at it there is no reason why Jackpot won't be a future winner of this tournament.

Oooops

Got Whitlock right

In fairness to Lewis, he played well and had a good average but Taylor played the big moments right and had too much for Lewis.

Great darts by Whitlock , The treble 18 double 18 double 16 was superb darts .

The BDO's Worlds Championships is about to start. Is Colin Murray the new face of darts on the Beeb or is it just due to Stubbs' health problems?

Hopefully, this tournament can be as good as last years. Fitton, O'Shea or Waites for me. Any one of them to win it and I'll be happy.



Back to the PDC Worlds, Taylor and Whitlock were awesome last night. Didn't think Lewis played that badly, Taylor just took control at the key points in the game.

Stubbs is at ESPN now so they have to get someone else to do it.

Webster v Whitlock or Taylor v Barney in the final for me!

They've all been close matches, there were some shockers at the start of the PDC Worlds too. van der Wiel impressed in what was a fairly average match, some good finishing and scoring, his main problem was the amount of bounce outs he had. He'll need to sort that out, because Walton was poor, against better opposition, he'll be knocked out.

The Silverback-Kong battle was a great match, with some very impressive scoring. O'Shea, despite pretty average finishing got some decent scoring and played well. If he can improve his finishing he'll have a very good chance of winning the tournament.
