Rod Harrington has said that despite Phil Taylor not winning the World Championship since 2013 that he has the game to win a 17th before he sails off into the sunset at the end of the showpiece event at the Alexandra Palace.
He spoke of how he's got the game to win thee title and he starts off his campaign against young gun Chris Dobey who could be Taylor's last test at the World's and the Prince of Style spoke about Taylor's final worlds to Sky Sports.
"He's got the game, he's got the stats, he's certainly got the bottle, and he is retiring, so if he doesn't win it, it kind of doesn't matter because he's already won 16. But to go out on a high like he did in the Matchplay, then it's the dream send-off for Phil Taylor," said Sky Sports' analyst Harrington.
"If you look at the way he's played at certain times this year, he's beaten Michael in two major finals, at the World Series and the World Matchplay in Blackpool, which everybody remembers. I don't think that we can write him off, but he is going to have to play exceptional darts just to get to a final - we know that from the depth of talent in the field.
