Raymond van Barneveld swept through to the 2nd Round of the World Matchplay with a terrific performance…..and all thanks to Team Unicorn! The Dutchman trounced Steve Brown 10-3 to set up a showdown with Paul Nicholson – using brand new darts fresh out of the packet, after he forgot to bring his own!
Adrian Lewis showed just why he is World Champion as he won arguably the best 1st Round match in the 18-year history of the World Matchplay….and at the same time he broke Kevin Painter’s heart.
By his own very high standards, it has been a barren spell for the great Philip Douglas Taylor! But he is determined to change all that as he takes to his “favourite stage in the world” at the Winter Gardens, where he will be chasing an incredible 12th World Matchplay title.
Gary Anderson has tasted that winning feeling yet again! The Scot beat Wes Newton in a thrilling all Unicorn showdown in the final of the Dutch Darts Trophy in Nuland.
