Re: PDC World Darts thread

Just noticed that Wade is ranked 4 in the world! I'm not sure how the ranking points are worked out, but that surprised me.

It's a rolling total of all prize money won in ranking events. He won the UK Open last year, has made a final and semi final of the Grand Slam and made another TV semi final. He won £25k 2 years ago at the World Championship, so he's already made £75k more to add to his tally for the Order of Merit. If he loses he'll only drop a place (or two) if Michael Smith wins the event or Anderson makes a final. If Wade wins the tournament he'll jump to 3rd (I think).

Thanks for that Eric.
Is it a case of him entering more competitions, thus winning more £'s. Or is it just a case of me seeming to loath him? ...:hehe:

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Complete mismatch this.
Whitewash written all over it, if Smith manages to stay awake!

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Well that wasn't in the script! 2-1

Don't know about him entering more tournaments. I should have added it's a rolling 2 year tally.

Jonny Clayton has won more prize money than him this year but most of it has been in non-ranking events (like the Premier League and Masters) and so doesn't count.

I had a gut feeling that Wade could grind out a result, but it's looking like 6-1 from here.

He had actually got himself right back in it and looked like he'd got under Smith's skin.
Then he blew it, missing darts for 2-2.

Smith cooking on gas now.

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Smith is consistent, he takes out the big finishes. He plods along. Smith will be well deserved of the World Title, I thought it would be Clayton but smith beat him. Both players are well deserved. He still needs to get through here first mind. Looking good at the moment.

Wade pulls one back against the darts!
Smith thinking of the prize perhaps?

Wade is clinging on like diahorrea to the side of the pan.

Re: PDC World Darts thread

5-3 now. Smith must be twitching. Throwing first next set. If he loses it his arse will fall out.

It was the closest I could get to a rhyme :hide:

Sincere apologies to those offended.

Anderson back in it at 3-1.
There seem to be lots of his fans there tonight.
