Players Championship 16 Results, Last 32: Thornton dumps out Van Gerwen
NewsSunday, 19 May 2019 at 15:43
The third round at Players Championship 16 is complete with Robert Thornton in particular putting in a sublime performance to edge out Michael van Gerwen.
Thornton averaged 101 in a shock win over 'Mighty Mike' who has a barren weekend on his return to the ProTour.
Peter Wright though ended up heading out of proceedings losing 6-5 despite averaging around 102 in defeat.
It was Scott Taylor who perhaps had the performance of the round averaging around 108 in smashing Ross Smith in a 6-1 victory.
Jose de Sousa similarly produced the goods averaging 105 in edging out Geert Nentjes which of course was potentially overshadowed by Taylor.

- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
