Josh Rock should go far, but still doesn’t have the right mental strength to win it, Stephen Bunting should also have a good run this year as well..
It’s a pity Beau Greaves has decided not to play, the money she will win for winning the women’s competition is probably to much for her to turn down.
Didn't actually watch it last night, but Humphries racks up another PDC televised win at the Players Championship!

Draw for the Worlds is 1630 today, Sky Sports News.

It was an epic final, great comeback from Humphries, and MVG threw a 9-darter as well.

World's draw happened yesterday, but I totally forgot the actual schedule doesn't get released yet - guess they need to work it out. So I still have no idea who I'll be seeing. Sounds like a tough opening match for Fallon though.

Schedule has been released, I'll be seeing Chisnall and Cross over my two days. Not the draws I'd want but that's the risk you take. Probably rather watch my favourite matches at home and actually pay attention to be fair.

If Buntz wins his first match he might be a tricky opponent for Michael Smith. There is usually always 1 first round shock.

lol Doets steamrolled Buntz. If he can perform the same against Smith later he may cause him problems.

Luke Littler is certainly one for the future (or even now!), astonishing darts.

My lad just won on Littler getting more than 6.5 180s in that match. 11/2 as well.

What a 'little' star!

Someone must have wrote down 2007 instead of 1997 when entering his date of birth. He looks like one of the boys that used to get in their car and drive home after playing against and thrashing you in an under 14 football game. Fair play to the guy tho, he is playing good darts.

So, Wade, Noppert and Wright out already.

3 big names falling at first hurdle, although Wright has not been in great form for a while.

I thought he'd maybe at least sound his age when interviewed by the reporter, but no,he didn't.

Yeah, he looks 30

Like that bearded lad in your 1st year who had hit puberty at 10 and was the same size as the gym master.

Hot and cold. Plenty of good stuff in there as well as a couple of dodgy legs.

But the pace of the Lithuanian chap was shocking. He seemed to be super slow and sometimes took ages to get out of the way. I’m surprised it didn’t put smith off even more.

I think he’ll actually be pleased with that win in the morning when he looks back at it. Coming back from 2 legs down was good work and some of the big setups saved him.

But he’s going to have a tough route to the final if he’s going to win it again.

First set of Bunting vs Hempel was off the charts! 7 x 180s and a 164 checkout.

Bunting is going to be a contender in this championship, playing some immense darts.
