"I’ve got nothing to lose": Gary Anderson not getting carried away with back-to-back ProTour titles
PDCThursday, 19 October 2023 at 08:00
Gary Anderson continued his excellent form with technically back-to-back Players Championship titles secured by 'The Flying Scotsman', but he is certainly not resting on his laurels.
Anderson saw off Josh Rock 8-4 to win Event 25 and after winning Event 24 last month, it was even better this time including a nine-dart finish and 113 average en route. It was Anderson at his vintage, but he very much wasn't getting too far ahead of himself with his usual attitude post final.
He also quipped that he may not play on the Thursday and instead may be in bed and that while he is glad that his Grand Slam spot is secured, he would rather play at the Wolves Civic instead.
A time of the year where Anderson usually comes alive and he has certainly done that again giving fans hope that he may produce some Ally Pally magic in particular come December.
“I’ve got nothing to lose. I just come up and throw darts and they’re going alright,” said Anderson.
“I last played in Leicester two weeks ago. Today is only the second time I’ve thrown since Andrew [Gilding] battered me on that stage!
“I was struggling at the end there. The young boys that do this every day of the week – hats off to them.
“I’m playing well, but I’m not looking too far ahead. I have my odd practice with Ryan [Searle], play in the Players Championships, and if I qualify for anything else in between it’s a bonus.”

- 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
