Daryl Gurney battles past Ricky Evans and into last 16 at the World Darts Championship
PDCThursday, 28 December 2023 at 23:55
Daryl Gurney has qualified for the last sixteen of the World Darts Championship at the expense of Ricky Evans. The Northern Irish dart player won 4-2 against 'Rapid Ricky', who had eliminated Nathan Aspinall a round earlier.
Again, a surprise was certainly a possibility. But with only 13 out of 42 on the doubles, you're not going to win matches. Evans did win the first set and even got ahead by a break in the second set, but could not grab a 2-0 lead.
The third set did go to Evans, before Gurney won the fourth set 3-2 with an 86 finish. Next, "Superchin" dealt a huge blow by throwing a 164 finish in Evans' set, taking a 3-2 lead. Gurney did not take that lead away and with an 84 finish in the sixth set, Gurney finished it off.

- 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

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
