Dave Chisnall’s comeback exploits have continued for the second night running with a stunning victory over Joe Cullen to reach the semi-finals of the World Grand Prix.
Chisnall came from two sets down against Ryan Joyce and was ultimately very fortunate to win through but he showed his battling qualities once more against ‘The Rockstar’ to win through.
Cullen was handed the first set on a plate with Chisnall squandering nine set darts in the deciding leg. ‘The Rockstar’ headed into the lead and began the requisite set with a 120 checkout for the opening leg.
It once again went to a decider and it was again Cullen who took it after five missed set darts from Chisnall and he doubled his lead in a tale of missed doubles.
Chisnall started to find his way back into the tie though and it all began with an excellent 150 checkout from the St Helens ace. Two missed darts this time from Cullen saw Chizzy double his lead and he claimed the set to halve his deficit.
From nowhere, he found himself in the ascendancy and after Cullen missed three darts to go to within one of the match, Chisnall had the lead in set four and he converted with an excellent 155 checkout.
A final set was back on parity and it was four consecutive legs for Chisnall as he finished 75 to lead. Cullen missed two darts to level and the former doubled his lead.
Cullen continued to battle with a break to dispel Chisnall going one away and it went all the way to a deciding leg. It went the way of the latter with Chisnall converting double 10 for an 18-darter after Cullen put himself down to 75 from 115.

- 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

- Get his wife to work so that he can retire. Do the seniors tour, Modus, exbos. He'll still be doing alright.medinabello23-12-2024
- He used this kind of anger as motivation to get past this round. Next round he will revert to his usual form. 90 or below ave and a defeat.medinabello23-12-2024
