William O'Connor has spoke of his pride of reaching the final of the World Cup of Darts for the Republic of Ireland despite losing out in the end to Scotland.
O'Connor said it was a dream come true but that it was a pity that they couldn't go a little further and claim the title. He also gave plaudits to the Scottish pairing and said they threw some 'unreal darts' in the end.
This marks another milestone for 'The Magpie' who has recently claimed a maiden PDC ranking event and has now reached his first TV final and based off this past weekend, this could lead to even more for both him and Steve Lennon.
"I'll look back on the whole tournament positively. Myself and Steve are in the final of the World Cup, it's a dream come true.
"I knew we could do it and it's a pity we couldn't go that one step further. I'm proud to represent Ireland.
"Scotland threw some unreal darts in the final, and the fans were absolutely fantastic all weekend."

- If he went on the Seniors tour surely he would mop up the titles?Mysstree26-11-2024
- I'll miss Steve Thank you for all the memories and great matches. I was there when he (luckily) won the 96 World Championship, I expected him to win and perfom better in the PDC than he did as he moved over so early when he still had good form. Looks great for 60, today's players should take note !! Sure he was a driving instructor when in the BDO. A cool guy, very friendly and interesting to chat with.No theatrics on stage, just got on and played darts Sign him up SKY !!!richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- I agree. With the number of tournaments these days?, Phil could probably earn £2 million a year if still playing. I can't believe Chisnall has earned over half a million for being so inept, he barely gets past the first round, stealing a living. That's outrageous.richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- As prize money increases each year and there are now more tournaments then logically breaking the £2 million barrier is going to happen, only thing preventing it is the now deeper strength in depth of the darting field. If you took Taylor’s best two consecutive years and substituted the prize money from now onto the tournaments he won he would have passed the £2 million.Mysstree26-11-2024
- Only Gary Anderson in MVG’s quarter who should really trouble him assuming he wins his first two games. If he can’t get out of that quarter of the draw he will be hard pushed to win another World Title.Mysstree26-11-2024
