James Hurrell withdraws from Lakeside due to ill health replaced by Richie Edwards

James Hurrell has withdrawn from the BDO World Championships just under a week from the tournament beginning at Lakeside in Frimley Green.

’Hillbilly’ hasn’t played competitively since reaching the World Masters Quarter Finals in September losing to Gabriel Clemens and has withdrawn from his third appearance at the competition due to ill health.
Richie ‘Tricky’ Edwards the next listed player in the BDO qualification table replaces Hurrell in the draw bracket and will play Danny Noppert or Joe Chaney in the first round meaning no re draw or alterations to the schedule are needed.
