After an otherwise poor World Series campaign for Fallon Sherrock, she raised her game as she often does against the big names but fell to Peter Wright in a thrilling first round tie at the World Series of Darts Finals in Amsterdam.
Wright produced a 103.5 average and four 180's as he looked superb on the scoring continuing from his title win in Jena last week but he only just edged through 6-4 due to the prowess on the outer ring from Sherrock who hit 4/4.
This was shown in the opening stages as despite a disparity of sixteen points on the averages, it was locked at 2-2 as Sherrock pinned 87 and led from there at 3-2 with a 73 checkout on the bull.
Wright hit a third 180 and double 20 to square it up at 3-3 with a break but Sherrock kept pace with a 120 checkout at 4-4. Wright went one away though and hit a 76 checkout despite whistling from the crowd to deny Sherrock a chance at 56 for the last leg decider.

Early on, Gates hit a 120 checkout to move 2-1 up on Petersen but Petersen hit the front at 3-2 on double 20 after 142 was missed by Gates but Gates turned it around again going 5-4 up.

- 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
