‘Fireball’ plays Nico Kurz in the first round and the World Championship semi-finalist admits that if he plays like he know he can there’s no reason why he can’t walk away with the trophy. Lewis thinks it will be an incredible experience and is hoping to find some consistency in his game in his first televised appearance since the World’s. “It’s going to be an incredible experience playing in front of such a huge crowd,” said Lewis, who gained his
World Series debut due to his run in the World Championship. “When I started playing darts I never could’ve imagined that I’d be playing in a big football stadium. “If I play like I know I can then there’s no reason why I can’t win it, I showed at the Worlds I can beat anyone on my day. “I just need to find some consistency and if I turn up and play my best game on Friday then I can walk out of there with the trophy.” “I’m really looking forward to playing on TV again, I love playing on the biggest stages and hopefully I can play like I did at the Worlds," added Lewis. “I think I strive on pressure. "I tend to do a lot better on the big stage than I do on the floor so I think playing in front of such a huge crowd will help my game.”
