Anyone but Matchfixer
Cross shutting up Mason there with his treble 18 autism
>Doets
>>155584083>tune in right in time to see Job Dross celebrating his win over DoetsFuck me.
Bloody hell Asp. 108.65 average and one dart missed at double.
Sykes repeating what his fellow Modus alumni van Schie did last time and getting to a Euro QF on debutCammy had too much to do from 2-5
>Jobbert
>>155585074Proper fucked that away.
>118 avgMvG getting GOLDFINGERED!
>Nonce averaging 110 and left on 56>Autism decides to try 18s on 90 and loses the leg because of itHe has been hanging around with Dork far too much.
>>155586204Didn't know this was even possible these days. Could've easily broken first or last leg though, some games it's just not meant to be it seems.
>>155586204Just like the last Women's Series, Beau fails to win either event on the Sunday. Probably be pleased with a couple of weeks off now.Dykes' Matchplay field currently looks like this:>(1) Beau Graves v (8) Kirsi Viinikainen>(4) Gemma Hayter v (5) Vicky Pruim>(2) Lisa Ashton v (7) Rhian O'Sullivan>(3) Fallon Sherrock v (6) Deta Hedman
>>155586302>Deta HedmanLove rDeta very happy she won Lakeside x
>Bunting vs NijmanSykes... umm, I mean: Yikes.
Quarter-Finals:>Cross v Aspinall>Sykes v Wattimena>Gilding v R. Smith>De Decker v Nijman
One hour bump.Six Nations final is Wales v Scotland by the way, not much in terms of recognisable names other than David Davies (the NHS worker who lost to Littler at the Worlds) and Mitchell Lawrie. The rest are Challenge Tour/WDF jobbers.
why do darts athletes all look 10 years older than they are
>>155586302Potentially funny situation incoming as Angela Kirkwood (who beat Beau earlier) is in the final against Eleanor Cairns. If Kirkwood wins, she will eliminate Viinikainen from going to Blackpool and put O'Sullivan into 8th seed.
>>155589461And astonishingly Cairns wins after Kirkwood misses at least 4 title darts!So the confirmed Women's Matchplay line-up is as stated in >>155586302
>>155589461Oof Viinikainen lost her first round 4-3 with a 78 average, must sting a bit when the board next door had a winning average of 49.
>>155590919Was 5 in fact: https://twitter.com/OfficialPDC/status/2068740581807800662>>155591139The nature of the random draw unfortunately. The Women's Series really should be seeded.
I know we were laughing at Jo Andrews yesterday but who's laughing now!https://recap.dartconnect.com/games/6a37e1c054e80efd4fd9d0deShe won a game 4-0.
>>155591719>sub-40 averagesTHE REAL SHIT
>>155586462Thats how 1/3 of all lads look like from that part of yorkshire
>Asp plays out of his skin this afternoon to smack Searle>jobs like fuck versus CrossThanks for nothing, Nathan.
Looks like Wattijobber is BACK!>2/16 on doubles
>>155591719She's just like me.
Utter slog between Nonce & Smudger so far
Based Smudger
>De Decker staying on 20s on 182No surprise at that brainfart, Matchfixer absolutely spanked him.
Sykes going home here if he plays like he did against speednjobber
>>155596031Have a feeling Dross won't crumble like the others did, would loved to be proved wrong though.
Shame for Sykes, he got Bauldtism'd.
Unlucky Sykes, good debut thoughCarn Smudger
>>155598300Certainly got a future if he can bottle his A game, did throw some nails in that Wattimena game tho
>>155588021Scotland won that 13-6, Lawrie fittingly hitting the winning double against permajobber Llew Bevan.
Fucking Matchfixer.
>missing big numbah on 60>Dross

And so Wessel Nijman makes it eight PDC titles this year and becomes the first player to win a PDC ranking tournament in Slovakia with an 8-3 thumping of Rob Cross in a high quality final, with both averaging over 102. The difference was the opportunities on the doubles, with Voltage having the unenviable stat of having fewer finishing chances (5) than his opponent won legs, as Nijman checked out at 50%. Rob missing the bull on 86 at 2-1 up to solidify his break was fatal as Wessel finished 68 last dart in hand, and then won 6 of the remaining 7 legs.Despite being matchfixing scum, Nijman is proving he is the player to beat on the Pro Tour this season; there are very few occasions he goes off in Players Championships and European Tours, and if you don't take him out then, he will go on to win the title. With Blackpool coming up in just under a month's time, the most important question is this: can he FINALLY take this floor form onto the big stage and not shit himself in front of the TV cameras?For the maiden PDC ranking event in Slovakia, it sadly fell away at the back end as Tom Sykes' semi-final run was really the only noteworthy point of the whole weekend; despite strong showings from both Cameron Menzies and Nathan Aspinall in individual matches, neither were able to repeat that in their following games.World Series from the US is at the end of this week.
