Michael Smith has pushed Daryl Gurney deeper into the relegation problems in the Premier League Darts. In Dublin it became 7-5 for Bullyboy, who became the hero of the crowd by throwing a nine-darter.
Smith hit his nine-dart finish in the fourth leg, to level the match to 2-2. Both played stayed close to each other, until the Englishman in the eleventh leg benefited from six misses on the doubles from Gurney. Smith took out 56 to break and then hit double 2 to claim the victory.
The former World Youth Championship has now five points after four matches. Gurney gets deeper into trouble with just one more point and needs victories in the coming weeks to prevent elimination.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- 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
