For the 2023 World Cup of Darts, the PDC finally gave in to public pressure and made the event a tournament of exclusive pairs matches. Wayne Mardle believes the new format was a complete success.
Speaking on Sky Sports after Wales had claimed the title with a comprehensive 10-2 win over Scotland in the final, "We've been pushing for it for a while," Mardle said in relation to the new format. "It was interesting to see Peter Wright and Gary Anderson say the format has been an absolute blast as well."
"If the players are enjoying it you're going to get quality darts thrown as well," he continues. "We can't forget some of the other nations that have given us so much entertainment over the past few days. Namely, Germany, the Belgians as well and Australia making a decent defense but coming up short."
"It's been one of those events that I've looked forward to. The format change for me has been a right success."

- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
