Mike De Decker failed to qualify for the second round on his debut at the World Matchplay. The 27-year-old Belgian lost 10-7 to Joe Cullen in his opening match.
De Decker reacted afterwards at VTM 2. "I missed some chances here and there and and that cost me the win," he said. "I was too inconsistent. He deservedly won. I have a double feeling. There were good moments, but also bad moments."
'The Real Deal' must now face a long period without competition. "Until August 24, I don't have a tournament. We'll see what comes my way in the near future."

- 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
