Re: Dartsnews.com
this is typical of the type of bullsh1t wannabe "journalists" are churning out these days, more nonsense articles.
"Kevin Painter announced his retirement from professional darts"....seriously ?
The truth is he was not able to qualify from q-school to play professional darts
Its not like he can go elsewhere to play professional darts.
So he did not retire from "professional darts", he was not good enough to be able to compete in professional darts.
for all intentional purpose, Professional darts dumped him.

Damon Heta off the back of his brilliant Brisbane Darts Masters triumph lived up to expectation on his shoulders by heading to follow his darting dreams in England.
Heta played at the World Championship losing to Glen Durrant in the second round before winning through Q-School.
Ahead of his second year on the PDC Tour, ‘The Heat’ sat down with DartsNews.com to discuss that opening foray.

Alan Soutar will join the ranks of the PDC Tour when the Super Series begins on Thursday, after being a real standout from both stages of Q-School.
Soutar is a previous BDO/WDF winner, a former Lakeside qualifier and a proud Scot with over 50 caps for his country. He spoke to DartsNews.com after being part of a new batch of Tour Card holders.

"Kevin Painter has declared he has 'unfinished business' in the PDC ahead of his return to Q School next week.
Painter, 53, will attend UK Q School for a third consecutive year, desperate to win back his PDC Tour Card which he lost at the end of the 2018 campaign.
A former TV title winner and World Championship runner-up, Painter still believes he has more to give to the sport as he looks to recapture the form that saw him claim a place in the 2012 Premier League.
"I would call it 'unfinished business'. I believe I came off the tour before it was my time. It wasn't a case of getting hammered 6-0 or 6-1 every week and thinking 'I can't do this anymore' I believe I'm plenty good enough to be on the tour still, my practice has been going alright, I'm throwing really well now."

Painter did not retire of his own choice, he was forced out .

In this column we regularly reminisce about a 'forgotten darter' from the past. Today it is the turn of Dave Whitcombe. He won the Winmau World Masters twice, but lost to Eric Bristow in two World Championship finals.

Surely the only darts fans who would have forgotten him would have suffered a brain injury which would render them incapable of understanding the article.

When a player takes to the oche for the first time as a PDC professional, it is to be expected that their nerves will be on edge.
A first foray into the competitive shark tank that is the Pro Tour inevitably comes with heaps of pressure to prove oneself against the biggest names in darts.
But Jack Main, whose impressive performances at February’s Q-School earned him a tour card at the first time of asking, has found the transition to the professional game remarkably straightforward.

“It's been very difficult this year compared to last even. My Federal Government has imposed a mandatory quarantine at our expense when returning to Canada in excess of $1100 each trip, and during the last Series in Germany my Provincial Government hit me with a secondary hotel quarantine 7 days at $1400,” said Smith to DartsNews.com.
