Chisnall claims commanding first round victory over Brown at World Matchplay

Dave Chisnall has claimed a commanding victory to reach round two of the World Matchplay against Keegan Brown. 'Chizzy' looked brilliant as he reeled off nine of the last ten legs despite not hitting the power scoring he is well known for.
It was still a 94 average with two 180's and 10/16 on the doubles which usually plagues the St Helens ace as he did a professional job against a 76.6 average from the former World Youth Champion.
In terms of high checkouts he took out 148, 147 and 140 to cap off the brilliant performance and show his class on the doubles.

- It has been fantastic watching Richie Burnett this week in the Modus Super Series and a fabulous interview with Paul Nicholson on YouTube. 30 years since his World Championship and a repeat of the 96 final with Steve Beaton. Magic boom boom boom boom boom boomrichieburnettrocks16-01-2025

- It's so disappointing the Modus Super Series is no longer on TV. Watching it on YouTube is not really the same. It's absolutely excellent and most importantly Richie Burnett is competing this week, Richie seems to want to headbutt the board when collecting his darts.richieburnettrocks14-01-2025
- I want him to do well this year, but Mike de Decker needs to settle himself, and let his darts do the talking. There's no need to make it easier for the PDC to overlook him in the future.
UndartedWaters14-01-2025 - 2024 was "the year of the underdog", but in reality showed the depth of talent in the PDC. Too deep for the PDC apparently, who got spooked and pulled out the bath plug, most likely to the detriment of the sport. I am sure most fans would want up-and-coming players to be given a hand up, not a slap down.UndartedWaters13-01-2025

- Newly relegated Tour Card holders made up 26/256 of the Q School Final Stage field: 10.16%. They won 3/29 of the Tour Cards on offer: 10.34%. This suggest that the 'worst of the best' are of a similar standard to the 'best of the rest' which is notable but surely unsurprising.Scoobedybop13-01-2025
- Now this is a heart-warming story. A top-32 pro-player giving up his time to help out in a humble role at Q school. Well done Ricardo.UndartedWaters12-01-2025

- Gutted to hear about Wynand, he was one of those one off championship characters that you always remember. He beat Manley at his own game. Maish was the VAT fiddler. I think it was Webster, Wynand should have beaten in that 3rd round. Thank you Wynand for those brief but everlasting memories.richieburnettrocks11-01-2025
