THE POWER GETS SWITCHED OFF

Posted in General

Darren Webster saved his best performance till last in his final group game of the Singha Beer Grand Slam of Darts. Playing against darts legend Phil Taylor last night - 14th Nov - Darren whitewashed the 16 times world champion 5-0. After losing his first 2 group games against Ian White and Darryl Fitton 5-3 and 5-4 respectively and with no chance of making the qualifying stages Webster produced the best performance of his career. You could argue that with Taylor having already qualified the "Power " was not as focused as usual. But Taylors winning mentality never normally allows for such indiscretions to occur, much  less in front of a  massive live TV audience. Frustratingly Webster could have won both of his previous matches and he knows it, both games were easily within his grasp. However a win against Taylor can never be underestimated and Darren will roll into the Players Championship Finals in Minehead at the end of the month in fine fettle.
