Chris Dobey is not likely to be high on anyone's list of potential PDC World Championship 2019 winners.
Dobey himself is an exception; the Bedlington ace believes he has the game to take the title. He reached the second round of the 2017 World Championship, and at the first hurdle last year. Speaking to , Dobey talked up his chances of PDC World Championship glory. "There's no reason why I can't (win)," Dobey said. "On my day, I'm good enough to win it. "I'm playing some good stuff at the moment. Happy with my preparation and my game at the minute, so I've got to keep that up, and hopefully I can have a good run." His lofty ambitions could be checked early on by Russia's Boris Koltsov. Based on Koltsov's TV performances, Dobey is aware that he'll have a fight on his hands. "I've seen him play in the World Cup a few times. He's obviously a good player," the 28-year-old admitted. "I've just got to play my game, and hopefully on the day it'll be enough."

- 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
- Nobody cares about averages, the only record he'll take from Phil and its meaningless. Winning tournaments is the only importance of darts and nobody will ever eclipse Phil in any meaningful way. What does an average pay or warrant any success, this proves that, yet people still bang on about them.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
