𝙊𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙃𝙐𝙉𝙏 Our first seed is toppled as Jamie Hughes is sent packing by an impressive Adam Hunt to close out this afternoon's action!
Adam Hunt has toppled the first seeded player of the 2020/21 PDC World Darts Championship with a commanding 3-0 victory over an out of sorts Jamie Hughes.
Hunt has been in-form as of late and capitalised on a poor display from 'Yozza' who averaged just 75.
To begin the tie, Hunt breezed through the first set in consecutive legs with Hughes averaging 72.
It was soon a 2-0 lead for 'The Hunter' as he took out double four to claim it 3-1 and go within one of the match. A big comeback was needed from Hughes.
But it wasn't to come as Hunt held throw to go within one of the match on double 20 and a 14 darter on double four with Hughes well abck concluded the tie.
It was a professional job from the North East ace as he averaged 91 with four 180's and 34% on the doubles.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
