So nearly once again at The Masters for Mervyn King, but what a run to make another TV final... The Indian Summer continues for the 54-year-old who is enjoying a resurgence in his career!

Mervyn King continued his run of losing in TV finals with an 11-8 defeat to Jonny Clayton at The Masters this past weekend.
King had another brilliant series after reaching the final of the Players Championship Finals late last year and has been in superb form for the past 6-8 months.
But the former World Master admitted his form wasn’t sustained and that Clayton deserved the title in the end.
"I can't explain what happened because I haven't got a clue," said King post match.
"One minute I felt right and the next I didn't. It was very on and off. I started to fall asleep in the semis against Gerwyn and got away with it.
"I was just hoping hit maybe I could force a last leg but all credit to Jonny he played some cracking darts, fair play to him.
"Hopefully I'll be back again fairly soon."

- 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
