I'm pretty sure he posted a lot about doing that on the socials.

I only caught the last set, but it's completely gone hasn't it? Not good to see him on TV playing like that.

Not any more. He won't go far with this level though.

Who played really well. Gates can't count but he can finish.

Admittedly Gates was wonderful and Adams played pretty well for a young man of his age. Fitton will be beaten convincingly unless he averages 114 like he did in the 2004 IDL (it took Taylor years to beat that, showing how good Fitton was in his day). Strange that 2 time BDO world champion and former World master Phil Taylor is on first rather than towards the end.

Most likely hoping Taylor gets through the quarters in which case it would give him a bit longer to rest up until the evening session - although he has a tough opponent in Richie Howson in the quarters, and it wouldn't surprise me if Richie won to be honest

Can see Taylor getting to the Semis, but then he's going to meet a higher standard.

They'll all be quaking in their boots by the sight of Taylor. He'll find a way to win, like always

I enjoyed that. Made a nice change and the overall standard is improving.
