"The other countries are much more scared of us, than we are of them" - Australians shine with confidence at World Cup of Darts

“We didn’t feel any pressure — this is just a darts tournament,” Heta said. “I think the other countries are more scared of us than we are of them.”

“I’m playing completely free now,” said The Wizard. “Damon is in top form, and I’m hitting them pretty well myself. The longer format in the knockout stage suits us better. These best-of-seven group matches can be tricky — there’s little room for error and not much rhythm.”

  “I practice that every day and didn’t even think twice,” Whitlock smiled. “I wasn’t surprised,” added Heta. “I know what he can do and I’ve got full confidence in him.”  

“We played two solid matches, but we can raise our level,” said Heta. “Hopefully, we’ve saved our very best for later in the tournament.”

“Players down under are getting more chances from the PDC,” Heta said. “I hope they grab them. It’s time more of them step up, go to Q-School, and earn a Tour Card.”
