Only BDO ranking events and UK Open and Grand Slam included. Deta has won more than any other player, male or female, so far this year:...

Such a shame, because the darts was better

Shame if that's the case

Addicks Fan, where do you find the new prizes of Catalonia Open if on the official website there aren't information about prizes of this edition. Dardero, this is where I got the info from. It's just been re-posted on the dartfreakz website: http://www.dartfreakz.nl/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Price...

£1k less if you account for the high checkout prize.

Add in the GSOD prize money and it will be more - well done Machin!

A few very respectable averages there Indeed, if only the organisation was as good as the players. Too busy chasing something unobtainable, and forgetting what makes them special. I like watching BDO darts, and I might be one of the very few that don't agree that standards are dropping year-on-year...

just give it to duzza now Crazy to say he has an easy ride to the final. Has no history of doing well in this competition. Harms has to turn up tomorrow and believe in himself. If he falls behind I think Duzza will steamroller him. And then it's Wolfie or Machin. Would need an inspired Wolfie to be...

Ok, in the absence of ACF, some stats from the World Trophy so far (up to L16). Players averages per dart. Tournament round averages weighted by number of legs: 98.97 Glen Durrant 98.33 99.83 95.47 Jamie Hughes 95.40 Wesley Harms 100.77 91.01 94.53 Darius Labanauskas 95.18 93.99 93.22 Conan Whitehea...

The darts has been good, most of the tv work has been ok, the promotion has been woeful, which is a shame, given that the quality of the darts is worthy of more. Zilstra beating Ashton is the real shock, the others just go to show much of BDO darts is about performing on the night. Some organisation...

Placeholder for Nick to say they are selling well and the BDO should be pleased, or something contrary along those lines...

Up to 298 now, 99 of those on Saturday. Might not look completely deserted...

Dire, but creeping up: Friday - 51; Saturday - 89; Sunday - 60; Monday - 58; Total - 258

I don't think they can according to the rules - he hasn't got a tour card and has not played in a Players Championship

As the qualifying finished for Eastern Europe then? Unless the Bulgarian Open is slotted in somewhere (in the list of events but not on the calendar) then all Eastern Europe events have been played. He just squeezed home. Wonder if he new that when he was missing those doubles to win the Police Mas...

I really dont understand why people think this would even be a debate for him if qualified for both then hes guaranteed £10000 at Ally pally and would have to make the semis of Lakeside to get more than that hmm tough choice not. If he was professional then yes, however he's not, so the money may n...
