Cameron Menzies was the best yesterday at the penultimate Players Championship of the year. 'Cammy' defeated Stephen Bunting 8-4 in the final to become the PDC's first ranking winner.
Menzies had lost the final at Players Championship 19 earlier this year, but at Players Championship 29, the 35-year-old Scot took the win. Moreover, Menzies did not steal the victory, beating no less than six former winners of TV tournaments on his way to the title.
“I’ve won a ProTour, and nobody can ever take that away from me,” reflected an emotional Menzies. I wanted to win this title so much; I’m absolutely buzzing. This means so much to me."
Cameron Menzies in action
“At one stage I never thought I was good enough to win a ProTour, but I believe right now I’m playing the best darts of my life.
“I’m playing against the best players in the world here, and I feel when I’m on my game, I can match them, and I never thought I’d be able to do that.
Steps
Menzies does not want to rest on his laurels and is already dreaming of more success. "Hopefully this is a stepping stone to winning a major [title], like Ritchie [Edhouse] and Mike De Decker have done recently."

- 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
