Darts 2018



he's going to go flying up the rankings. 50k alone for getting to the semi's and you'd fancy him against Smith who's so inconsistent

I got inro the Prem League darts and got to know the 8/9 players. Seems more or different players in this tournament. Who are they and are they lesser ranked as not in the Prem League?

Premier league is pretty much the players ranked 1-10 these days. This is the top 16 plus the 16 highest ranked in the players championship order of merit.

5 of the 8 quarter finalists are familiar - Cross recent world champ, Wright and Wade need no introduction, Smith made the PDC world final earlier this year, and Gurney has been a top 4/5 player for a while now, so that leaves 3. Durrant is a 3 time BDO champ and definitely among the 10 best players in the world (even when in the BDO) and just switched to the PDC earlier this year.

King is a veteran on both codes and a typical last 16 type player. Bunting is another former BDO champ and switched about 3 or 4 years ago. I'm sure he has played in the PDC Premier League since he switched, but again more like a 15-30 player at the moment. Anderson and MVG went out pretty early.

Smith was awful in the Prem League, and Wright not much better so surprised to see them in semis.
