Clayton shows form hitting most 180's during Austrian Darts Open title win
NewsTuesday, 24 April 2018 at 17:15
Jonny Clayton ended up the winner in Graz on Sunday but as statistics show it wasn't a fluke for the Pontyberem ace with him hitting the most 180's over the course of the weekend.
The Welshman hit 15 over the course of the weekend just ahead of the player that he defeated in the final on Sunday, Gerwyn Price. Clayton and Price are ahead of another of the shining lights of the weekend, Mensur Suljovic; he impressed in front of the home crowd hitting 11 180's.
In fact most of the players in the top ten reached the latter stages with only Steve West who nearly dumped out Rob Cross hitting 7 180's. Peter Wright hit the most 180's per leg with 0.40 despite him going out early doors himself.

- 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
