Reigning World Champion Price calls for World Darts Championship to be postponed after new COVID-19 infection
PDCWednesday, 29 December 2021 at 20:53
Following Vincent van der Voort and Michael van Gerwen, Dave Chisnall has now also tested positive for COVID-19. This means Chizzy is the third player in only three days time who has been forced to leave the tournament.
Reigning world champion Gerwyn Price thinks it can't go on like this and has urged the PDC to take action. ''Tournament needs to be postponed'', he said on Instagram.
The Welshman revealed earlier he was disappointed after Van Gerwen's withdrawal due to his positive COVID-19 test. ''Now this tournament is devalued. I'd rather play the best to be the best. Absolutely feel sick for these players having to pull out over Covid.''

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- 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
