Predicitons and tips for the year ahead in darts

[Lee Taylor]

No really strong thoughts for the coming season, but I am of the opinion that Taylor won't have it all his own way.

I predict that he will win the Matchplay, he just loves the venue, the crowd etc and I think he will pull out all the stops to retain his title.

The "biggy" this year for me, and the one I'm most looking forward to is the UK Open. I think Anderson could win his first PDC major here, and I'm expecting a few players to break onto our tv screens. The likes of Steve Brown, Justin Pipe, Nigel Heydon and Peter Hudson are all in good form in the Players Championships, so expect one of those to cause a few upsets.

Also looking forward to seeing what Whitlock, Newton, Nicholson and Baxter will do.

Good times ahead!!

also...have players like aaron monk and joe cullen got sponsors??

Not sure about this years, but Heydon will make strides over the next 2 or 3 years.[/quote]

Thats it, for Nigel and a few more this is long term darts, not break onto our screens in a few months.
