Who will start this year's
World Matchplay as the top favourite? Hard to predict, although statistics do point toward
Gerwyn Price.
Indeed, Price leads the list when looking at the highest averages this year. 'The Iceman' averaged 99.23 during his 2023 matches, no one did better.
In second place we find Gary Anderson with 97.96, the top three is completed by Luke Humphries with 97.88.
Wright
Of all the series heads, Peter Wright, who is seeded second in Blackpool, has by far the lowest average at 93.77. Steve Beaton has the lowest average of all participants in this year's World Matchplay with 91.82.
