Darts 2012

Quote:
Reigning champion Adrian Lewis survived a major scare on the opening night of the 2012 Ladbrokes World Darts Championship.

Quote:
"I was 2-0 down and was stung by a wasp in the break and that's when I thought it's not my day," said Lewis, who nonetheless insisted he never felt he was going to crash out.
Quote:
With Lewis clearly struggling for form, Heydon was in no mood to let up and double six took him into a two-set lead.

Quote:
Lewis hailed his opponent's play, telling Sky Sports: "He had me under the cosh. The way he was finishing in the first two sets was phenomenal."


Quote:
While Lewis survived, the same could not be said of sixth seed Mark Webster, who crashed out to Richie Burnett.

Quote:
Afterwards, Burnett said he believes he can still add another world title to his CV.

Quote:
Earlier in the night, Roland Scholten saw off Jamie Caven 3-1 in the tournament's opening match.
Quote:
Despite some 'double trouble', Jones beat Scott MacKenzie 3-1 in the day's final match to progress.

19:10 First Round Jamie Caven 1 - 3 Roland Scholten

20:15 Preliminary Round Paul Barham 2 - 4 Scott MacKenzie

Quote:
Phil Taylor averaged just short of a 100 as he moved into the second round of the Ladbrokes World Championship with a 3-0 victory over Japanese qualifier Haruki Muramatsu.

Quote:
Wes Newton produced an impressive display to show he will be hard to ignore. The world number five has enjoyed a fine year and he proved too good for Kurt van de Rijck, winning in three straight sets at the Alexandra Palace.
Quote:
Newton next face Justin Pipe, who overcame a poor start to see off Sean Reed 3-1 in the night's opening encounter.
Quote:
Co Stompe saw off Michael Smith, also by a 3-0 scoreline.
Can Phil the Power win his 16th world title early next year?

Quote:
Steve Beaton battled back from the brink of defeat to beat Magnus Caris in an opening-round thriller at the PDC World Championship.
Quote:
The Swede then began the third set with a 13-darter but couldn't finish the job off, failing with three shots for the match as he seemingly became side-tracked by some heckling from the bumper crowd.
Quote:
Vincent van der Voort was also pushed hard in his opener on Saturday evening, eventually running out a 3-2 winner against Mark Hylton.
Quote:
Paul Nicholson found himself in a battle against Mensur Suljovic, the man who knocked out Michael van Gerwen and James Wade last year.
Quote:
The final first-round match of the night was short but not so sweet for Denis Ovens, as he was forced to pull out of his tie with Kevin Munch due to a back injury.

Enjoying the darts, not bothered who wins, but would prefer phil the power not to win. Just like variety sometimes (says the guy who eats porridge every morning :) )

Yes while Phil will be the greatest darts player there ever was it would be nice if Gary Anderson or James Wade won it for once.

Have not had chance to watch any of it this year due to problems with both our internet and tv (missing most of the sky channels). So I am delighted that I have been able to catch up with this. And I now have the channels back except still keep losing the HD channels every now and again. Engineer booked tomorrow.

Sorry to hear about your problems with your TV and internet and glad that things have improved to some extent and glad this thread has been of some help to people as so far the first round has produced a few shocks with Barney being one of those to go home early.


PS: Have a nice christmas and a lovely new year.
