Anderson punishes Smith for missing doubles and almost secures play-off spot
PDCThursday, 03 September 2020 at 20:25
Gary Anderson has come closer to a play-off spot in the Premier League Darts as he saw off Michael Smith 8-2 on Night 14 of the competition.
Anderson has now 19 points after 14 matches. One more point in his remaining two matches would be enough for The Flying Scotsman to qualify for the final night of the Premier League Darts.
Smith is likely to drop out of the race for the play-offs, as he needed a victory against Anderson. The former World Youth Championship won two of the first three legs, but missed a big opportunity to keep pace with Anderson.
The Scotsman broke Smith's throw in the sixth leg after Bullyboy missed five darts to level the match. Anderson hit double 2 to make 4-2 and claimed four more legs on the spin to claim the win.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
