Looking on the list of players I see Kong has entered - didn't realise his other half played as well.

Also notice there's an entrant from that hotbed of international arrows Ethiopia!!!

And I see for once not top heavy prize money and decant for that side 9k even split all round in men’s

Men’s 3k 1.2k 600 300 150 75

Lady’s 1000 400 200 100 50

Lady’s 1000 400 200 100 50

Both well down on last year unfortunately:

Men's prize fund £9,000 (last year £12,600)
Women's prize fund £2,600 (£5,525)

Ah yes the annual cattlemarket at the Normandy Hotel comes around again

It was gold event last year I think

Darts Legend Pecker Woods whitewashes Peter G Mitchell in the first round, in an interesting game which including Pecker hitting a 35 dart leg!

[Black Velvet]

PDC Pecker-esque!

[Smithy1412]

In other news, senior tour struggler Gary Robson lost narrowly, averaging 65. Both Pecker and Kong are through to the top 128, both are playing solid darts at the moment

[Black Velvet]

Difficult at Robson’s age tbf.

[Smithy1412]

He's only 55, Bob Anderson was throwing 180s and averaging 80 at 74 at last year's world seniors! As they say, "Age is just a number"

Stone, Barilli, North, Hogarth and Atkins all have an equal chance, the rest probably don't have much of a chance of winning the title

[ChrisW]

McEwan?

[el_ringo]

McEwan?

Yes the one who has to duck everytime a thrown beer can is flying overhead

[Addicks Fan]

McEwan?

And Scott Walters I reckon

Stream for the stage finals starting around 4.30pm

[Addicks Fan]

98 average for O'Sullivan in her semi final. Bit of a scoring machine when she is in the mood.

[Smithy1412]

It's the assassin vs Brooks in the final of the most prestigious darts tournament in Scotland
