It was a modern darting classic….a tungsten thriller but Phil Taylor’s reign as Las Vegas Desert Classic champion is over. ‘The Power’ switched off yet again by arch rival Raymond Van Barneveld in a quite brilliant semi-final.
It was a harsh lesson in Adrian Lewis’ darting education, as the pupil was put to the tungsten sword by the master, in their all-Unicorn 1st Round clash at the Desert Classic V in Las Vegas.
PHIL TAYLOR will begin his defence of the PartyPoker.net Las Vegas Desert Classic title with a clash against Adrian Lewis at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino on Wednesday.
Team Unicorn quartet of John Part, Adrian Lewis, James Wade and Bob Anderson all narrowly failed in their first bid to qualify for the Las Vegas Desert Classic….but they all get a second chance to make their mark at the Mandalay Bay Hotel on Tuesday.
