🇸🇽 Saw a lot of speculation yesterday about Christian Perez withdrawing from the UK Open, so I just asked him. Two reasons: 1. Securing a long term visa is a bit harder then thought. 2. He has kids to take care of and it's hard not to be with them. Hope this clarifies it.
Visa problems and family time behind lack of participation in UK Open for Perez

Christian Perez surprisingly won a PDC Tour Card at the Q-School in January, but the Filipino darter has not yet been able to take advantage of it. He is also not competing in the UK Open at the beginning of March.
Because players can earn prize money, and thus an income, at PDC tournaments, players settling in the UK need a visa.
Speaking to AsianDarts, Perez reveals that obtaining a long-term visa is proving more difficult than previously thought. The situation on the home front is another reason for staying at home. Perez has children to look after and it is difficult for him to leave them behind.

- And this should be the end of it. He was playing like a w****r and gestured as such. End of.Mysstree25-12-2024
- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024
- Was a great match and am a fan of Scott, don't see much of him on TV. How the hell is Cross 5 in the world, he goes out almost immediately in every competition.richieburnettrocks24-12-2024

- 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
