Joe Cullen will return after Christmas to face Damon Heta once again after a superb display to see off Ricky Evans to complete the first half of the 2022/23 PDC World Darts Championship.
Cullen and Heta have history in particular their clash at the World Matchplay where 'The Rockstar' felt aggrieved for not being favourite and eased through in a statement win.
While in seeing off Evans to reach that point, it was a 3-1 win with seven 180's a piece with Cullen surging away in particular in the latter half of the tie to produce some of his scoring best.
It was a clinical start for Cullen who hit a 109 and 62 checkout as well as two 180's en route to sealing it 3-1.
Once again, it was right shots at the right times as Cullen produced a 104 checkout from there on double 14 to double his advantage and make it 2-0.
But Evans got better and better and snuck the third set to make it 2-1 with four 180's and 60% on the doubles.
Only for Cullen to cut short the revival. He went seven darts into a nine-dart finish but mopped it up with a 56 checkout on double 18 to claim it.

- 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
