Wright warns Smith about target on his back with World Championship win: "They'll be taking out silly shots like 190"

For Peter Wright, the last World Championship was a major disappointment. The 52-year-old Scot went down against Kim Huybrechts in the third round and he is under no illusion on the difficulty of his year.
"It was a difficult one, obviously my operation and only won two tournaments, got to the final of another one so I've got nothing to spend for two years," said Wright.
Being asked about his rivals including question marks on Gerwyn Price, he also gave a message to Michael Smith on what to expect as World Champion.
"No there's no question marks over Gezzy (Price), it's just up to whether he wants to turn up that day. Bit like myself, MVG we know he's playing really well, back to his old form and then we've got Michael Smith, full of confidence, reigning World Champion and World Number One. He'll see what that target is like on your back when you walk into every room and every player will perform even better than they've ever done. They'll be taking out silly shots like 190."

- 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

- 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
