Anyone been watching? Getting into the good stages now. Price nearly went out last night.

Big news is MVG has had to pull out after testing positive for Covid

Means there’s only 2 matches on again tonight

Tournament is ruined.

Lol, it’s not ruined. He’s not the player he was. He hasn’t won a title for over a year.

He was joint favourite at the start, there will always be a question mark over this tournament now.

yep

Absolute rubbish. He was joint fav on reputation alone. His results over the last two years or so have been very poor when it comes to winning titles. The likes of Wright, Price, Clayton are getting the better of him quite regularly. You’ve got a double world champion still in there with Anderson. Other recent world champs like Price, Wright, Cross still in there.

The tournament hasn’t been devalued at all. It’s an insult to the other world class players to suggest so. It’s like casual boxing fans who think AJ is going to beat everyone just because he’s AJ.

Dave Chisnall out after a positive test

Descending into a farce :cry:

3 out now, fully expecting DVD to pull out too as he was around RVB, MVG and VVdV (sorry

) at Xmas.

That was their own silly fault. In the middle of a massive pandemic, you’re in the most important tournament of the year and you all go out for dinner and drinks together. One of them in the party must have been positive, so they couldn’t have done any LFT’s before going out.

Epic comeback from Anderson tonight, 0-3 to 4-3.

Price was a set down to Dirk but just won 9 legs in a row to lead 3-1. Make that 12 in a row to win 4-1.

Ian White must be world number 1 when it comes to bottling! If there's anyone you want to be 3-0 down against it's him.

This should be a great match

Who have you got in the running, I have Cross 28-1 and Rydz 50-1. Also had De Sousa in a bet I put on months ago when he was looking hot.

As for MvG he might not have won many tournaments of late but he's had some good averages. He'll comfortably stay in the top 4 even when the world championship ranking points are applied. He's lost some consistency though.

Not a fan of this chanting against Price (as much as I dislike his antics), I mean what are they going to do in the match vs another Welshman, keep up with the sheep song?

Really like Rydz, Price can never be discounted. Cross is playing well and my outsider imo is Ryan Searle.

el_dazza · 30 Dec 2021 at 14:06

Another superb comeback. This time King wins 4-3 from 1-3 down.

I fancied Cross pre tournament, even though he's in a tough half. Nice picks though, hope one comes good for you

Let’s go Gerwyn! Love that celebration he does, gets people wound up

ChroniC · 30 Dec 2021 at 16:48

I'd have to use ear plugs. I couldn't put up with the stupid songs let alone the jeering
