Adrian Lewis was dumped out of the 2020/21 PDC World Darts Championship at the hands of Danny Baggish in a 3-1 defeat in the second round.
Lewis took to Twitter afterwards to reflect on the defeat giving credit to his opponent but also admitting it didn't feel like the World Championship for him due to the lack of fans.
"So sorry to my fans and sponsor Target Darts, well done to Danny, but for me it just didn't feel like the World Championships, without the fans it just wasn't the Worlds for me and I couldn't get the adrenaline going," said Lewis.
This is a view that has been voiced by other players in recent days including Gerwyn Price who said it felt like he was playing in his kitchen.

- 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
