James Wade bolsters World Matchplay hopes, set to face Raymond van Barneveld in Last 16 of Players Championship 13
PDC
The Last 16 is here at Players Championship 13 and we have reached the business end of proceedings in Milton Keynes with James Wade, Stephen Bunting, Jonny Clayton and Ross Smith all still involved.
Wade in particular saw off Nathan Aspinall 6-5 in a typical Wade win as Kevin Doets faltered and handed him the initiative to sneak into the last World Matchplay position. A vital win for his Blackpool hopes. He is currently facing Raymond van Barneveld.
Michael Smith and Gary Anderson lost though with Wessel Nijman and Radek Szaganski removing the two biggest names left in. Stephen Bunting is the highest seed left. He faces Wesley Plaisier. Others still involved include Jonny Clayton who faces Radek Szaganski and Ross Smith who takes on Ricky Evans. Who seals the title from here?

- 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
