Askew loses out to Collins but finishes top of Icons of Darts League Group One on leg difference ahead of Monk
PDC
The first Group of the second week of the Icons of Darts Live League is concluded with Jason Askew finishing top after a successful debut in the competition.
Askew though only just got over the line in the end after losing out to Robert Collins in his final game who had not claimed a win all day up to that point.
It went all the way to a decider in a match which saw Askew trail going into the final leg and after missing double ten for a 140 checkout, Collins claimed the victory.
This put the onus onto Arron Monk who edged past Paul Nicholson after coming from 2-1 down to break 3-2 up and from there he surged clear to claim a 5-3 victory but he finished second only on legs difference in a successful day also on debut for the former World Youth Champion.
The action will continue but not in the Icons of Darts Live League but in A Night at the Darts later including Raymond van Barneveld, Martin 'Wolfie' Adams, Week One winner David Evans and standout Wessel Nijman among others which begins at 6pm tonight and will continue like the Live League all week.

- And this should be the end of it. He was playing like a w****r and gestured as such. End of.Mysstree25-12-2024
- 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
- Was a great match and am a fan of Scott, don't see much of him on TV. How the hell is Cross 5 in the world, he goes out almost immediately in every competition.richieburnettrocks24-12-2024

- 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
