Van Barneveld on how Taylor comment prompted 2007 World Championship revival: "It did give me the motivation to keep fighting"

Raymond van Barneveld and Phil Taylor played a legendary World Championship final in 2007. Barney' captured his first and only PDC world title there.
However, it almost didn't come to that. "At a 3-0 deficit in sets, my then manager Ed van der Veer came to the stage and called out to me: 'Come on Ray, you can do it'. Taylor had heard that too and shouted a an ugly comment, I don't even want to repeat it. It did give me the motivation to keep fighting and in the end I was able to reverse the deficit and win 7-6," Van Barneveld said on the podcast Everybody Loves Darts.
Respect
Van Barneveld and Taylor were nonetheless good friends at the time. "There has always been a very big form of respect between us. But now I don't hear from him that much, I'm not a caller anyway. Occasionally we still send each other a message," Van Barneveld concluded.

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
