José De Sousa lost 6-5 to eventual winner Ryan Joyce in the quarter-finals of the 26th Players Championship of the year.
In the last 64, however, a remarkable incident played out. In it, De Sousa faced Rusty-Jake Rodriguez. With his first three arrows, the Portuguese managed the curious score of zero.
Not for the first time in his career, 'the Special One' has left fans perplexed. “What happened???” asked one follower online. A second fan commented: “Probably all 3 darts bounced out.” Another fan referred to the Grand Slam of Darts a few years ago (where De Sousa threw a 120-finish with three times tops). "Probably tried to start with 3 tops and left them all on the top wire.”
That zero score did not stop De Sousa from winning the match 6-5. After wins against Jim Williams and Keane Barry as well, "The Special One" before going down 6-5 against Ryan Joyce in the aforementioned quarter-final.

- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024

- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
