'I believe I'm better now than I was before' - Stephen Bunting on current form after second group stage win
NewsMonday, 13 November 2017 at 16:00
Stephen Bunting continued his return to form with his second group stage win at the Grand Slam. 'The Bullet' will play Scott Mitchell tomorrow but looks set to finish top of the group in what has been a brilliant few months for the St Helens ace.
He defeated another St Helens darter in Dave Chisnall 5-2 so it was less close run than his win over Jeffrey de Zwaan and afterwards he admitted he was happy to win but wants to finish top of the group and also spoke about the work he is doing behind the scenes.
"I'm really happy but I want to finish top of the group so I'll be getting myself ready for my last game on Monday now," said Bunting.
"I'm putting a lot of hard work in behind the scenes and making small steps forward. I'm enjoying practising and I believe I'm better now than I was before, and hopefully that can start to come out on stage.
"I'm feeling comfortable and if I play the way I can play then I can beat anyone, but I don't feel like I'm playing my best darts yet and I'm still getting wins."

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
