Leonard Gates appeared in action last week at the Modus Super Series. There he was asked some interesting questions.
Gates has already won two tournaments on the World Seniors Darts Tour this year, so time for a closer look. Known for occasional discounts he even miscounted his age he started darts.
"I don't know the age but I know the year. 1994, let's see I was born in 1970. Maybe 28," says the 52-year-old American.
"I'd have to say Mo Vaughn (on sporting idol)."
'The Soulger' hopes to use darts to pad his bank account a bit. "I'd probably buy a boat," he laughs. About his ideal evening he doesn't have to think long. "Kicking back, sipping on a drink. Maybe the movie The Hunt for Red October."
Family comes first for Gates. "I would have to say my mother (on what he couldn't live without). Unfortunately I don't have her anymore."

- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.

If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- It happens. Remember, anyone who has watched German and Dutch players in matches - their respective countries will have seen/heard just as bad jeering (if not worse). Taylor and MVG are two prime examples of professionals who are able to cope with the crowds mentally and not take it personally. This is not just an English crowd problem, FFS.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- Was watching an old World Masters final the other day between Eric Bristow and John Lowe, the crowd respect for both players on throw was first class, not a sound. You can imagine now the idiots who were whistling on De Deckers throw proudly boasting about it on social media. I blame the PDC to a certain extent though doubt they really care as they win regardless of which player wins or loses.Mysstree16-11-2024
- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
