James Wade is seen as one of the favourites for the World Matchplay but didn’t start as well as he would have hoped last night. He came through a tiebreak against Jermaine Wattimena and admitted after it was a frustrating game.
For Wade it is frustrating as he has exhibited a real return to form over the past six months or so. He continued saying that he will need to play a lot better next time out.
"That was a very frustrating game for me, I thought I was going to play a lot better than that," Wade admitted.
"I just wanted to go up there and play well and not get involved in a scrap because it's never nice.
He added: "I was nervous and anxious to get over the finishing line which, thankfully, I did in the end but I will need to play a lot better than that."

- It’s a (as good as) gauranteed £25,000 for not a lot of effort.Mysstree28-11-2024
- Pathetic. The media attention she would receive at the PDC alone would more than compensate her for the quiet WDF comp. And if she wins a match, which she is more than capable of doing, the attention would go through the roof. I do not see the attraction of winning a tin pot comp over the massive PDC Worlds.medinabello28-11-2024
- I think with players above those mentioned in the rankings that haven't qualified for the Worlds in 2023 and haven't done so this year (players like Whitlock, King etc) they are guaranteed to stay in the top 64davetat18027-11-2024
- It is simply not true to say that these 5 players are guaranteed to keep their Tour Cards. At least Karel Sedlacek, Dylan Slavin and Stephen Burton are in danger of losing them, especially if they fail to win their first round match. Connor Scutt, Wesley Plaisier and the three mentioned players will be fighting hard for their Tour Cards.mxxiv27-11-2024
