Even the very best RVB will struggle to live with the top players now.

That's why he left. It would be a major embarrassment for him if he failed to qualify.

Never thought Barney would find something that makes him more miserable than playing darts but he has - not playing darts. Lockdown with him must've been a barrel of laughs.

Some reckon his divorce has cost him more than he thought.

He won the Player's Championship round today, his first ranking title since 2013. No, I didn't see that coming either.

Does this mean that Phil "The Power" Taylor will soon follow suit?

I can just see it now, Taylor doing what he does and Gerwen chinning him.
It would be like Alan Evans Eric Bristow revisited :hehe:

Always likes RvB, good to see him back.

Cullen & Clayton both on top form, both still in again today, as is Barney

Clayton on fire, another title & 3 finals out of 4. He’s more consistent than Gerwyn Price at the moment

Though, in fairness to Price, his world is totally different at the moment. It'll take him a little while to get used to things. It affected Rob Cross quite badly and Cross hasn't been the same player since, though I expect Price will adjust soon enough.

Barney collapsed at a Players' Championship event this afternoon, but didn't require hospital treatment. Not sure why I find this amusing, but his manager's name is Ben De Kok.
