Dartfreakz is essentially a darts gossip site, it regularly "breaks" stories first.

I will be expecting Mr Lim to be playing in this one. Maybe even Bunty might get a wildcard due to the popularity of soft tip in Singapore and him having done well in Asia previously

Rather see proper tournaments than glorified exhibitions. Also if the news about the collapse of the USA tour is correct then sad news that the PDC can't support tournaments in a country that pretty much propped them up from the beginning, but can afford to jet their top players around the world.

But if the players don't support a PDC tour in NA how can you expect the PDC?

The pdc keep trying to support the us darts but its not reciprocal on the part of the us players.

If they build it they will come does not seem to apply in the us.

Without the participation of the NA players in the early years, there would not have been a viable product to sell. In the last few years they have lost the US open, the desert classic and there are no Players championships there any longer. Replace those with tournaments with a lot lower prize fund level and you can see why interest is dropping among the players. Just pointing out, imho, I'd rather see money invested in proper tournaments than jollys for the top boys.

At the beginning, not from. It's been nearly two decades now since the American players had a significant role in the PDC. Expecting the PDC to keep throwing good money after bad is taking the anti-Olly stance a bit far... As it is, the American market is pretty much the deadbeat child in the PDC family.
