PDCWednesday, 16 November 2022 at 19:00
Peter Wright lost out to Nathan Aspinall last night at the Grand Slam of Darts with Alan Soutar joining him in the Last 16 which means 'Snakebite' heads home.
But for Wright, he has been eliminated in the group for the second time in the past three years but has also joined an illustrious list as a result of players to be eliminated despite winning their first two games.
The same previously happened to Wes Newton (2008), Paul Nicholson (2010), Simon Whitlock (2012), Raymond van Barneveld (2013) and Gabriel Clemens (2021).

- 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
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
