Dartsnews.com recently caught up with Canadian darts player Dawson Murschell. After part one of the interview which you can , we discuss his plans to move over to the UK, Development Tour and future ambitions in darts as well as signing for Winmau recently. Dartsnews asked him about his plans to move over to the UK and if his win over Wade inspired him to do so "I’ve been planning on moving over for a while but playing on TV definitely solidified it. I enjoyed playing on TV and in front of a big crowd that I want to do it again as much as possible." Dawson recently signed with Winmau Darts and we wanted to know how pleased he is to be signed to the team and also when his darts will be out. "Winmau has been fantastic to work with. We are working together to make sure my barrels exactly what I need and we are making sure they will be the best they can be. I assume they will come out early next year some time." Dartsnews asked him about his recent Development Tour weekend and whether he thinks more overseas players should come over and attempt the tour 'Yeah, I had a rough first day this weekend but it takes a lot to keep me down. I always go into an event feeling as if I will win it, and having one bad event never changes that. I always recommend players coming and giving it a go - provided they are ready to do so. A lot of overseas players underestimate the depth and the quality of darts over here. They come over expecting big results because they’ve done alright in their own country, and get absolutely battered when they come over and get their confidence shot. It takes a long time to learn to play darts in the UK, and if someone is committed to putting the time and travel in, then go for it.' Finally we wanted to know more about his future ambitions in darts to end the interview off. 'I want to be the very best I can be. And I believe that is one day being world number one and world champion. If you don’t believe you can be the best, then what’s the point?'

- @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
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- 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
