Krzysztof Ratajski through to third round in London with difficult win over Jamie Hughes
PDC
Krzysztof Ratajski may report to Alexandra Palace after Christmas for the third round of the World Darts Championship. 'The Polish Eagle' recorded a stumbling 3-1 victory over Jamie Hughes.
It hardly ran smoothly for a moment with Ratajski, who, on the contrary, is usually very solid with few ups and downs. The trebles fell sparingly in the first set and that set was won 3-2 by Hughes.

He then also had chances to win the second set 3-2, but this time "Yozza" failed to hit the double. Ratajski escaped a bigger deficit and made it 1-1 in sets with a 19-darter.
The third set wasn't easy either, but still went 3-2 to Ratajski, who hit double 16 with his third dart in the fifth leg. However, the Pole had to take a rebreak immediately after Hughes threw out 67. Still, Ratajski then forced another break with a 64 finish. He then finished it off with a 16-darter in his own leg.

- Even the wild crowd went easy on him... we really have gone soft in this country. He should now play in the men's events and try and recover a smidgen of respect, rather than take advantage of the women's game.MrYnyslas197118-12-2024

- We don't need the Saudi's money and prohibitive laws. Simply take the World's to other countries like Germany, Holland, Scotland, Poland, Belgium. Not only will you get sell out crowds with bigger venues but it will also freshen up the comp a bit. Let's face it Ally Pally is getting a bit boring now. Imagine 10,000 in Berlin, Rotterdam, Brussels etc.medinabello15-12-2024
- Am probably going to be in a small minority, i would not miss the walk ons, best part used to be the lovely ladies which obviously now makes me a misogynist. Its all part of the razzamatazz show business side and its not that long so not something that winds me up however some of the walk on choices are abysmal while some work, MVG and Seven Nation Army being an example. Dimi the Dancer is / was just awful and Peter Wrights is old hat now.Mysstree14-12-2024
