The two best players in the world, at the moment, are playing in the final of The Players Championship, and Van Gerwin has just hit a nine darter to lead Luke Humphries 3-2 at the break. 

Darts at its very best !

Cheers.

I watch darts now and again, charts, but I don't enjoy it as much as I did in the late 70's, early 80's.

Leighton Rees, world champion, only lived 3.5 miles from me, and it seemed, at the time, everyone wanted to beat him, even in local pubs.  No chance!!

My missus was World ranked in women's darts back in the 80's.

She played mixed doubles with some of the worlds best;

 

 

 

Didn't the council name a road after Rees ?

Cheers.
