Did Sherrock qualify or get an invite to the world's?He's a funny character. Cullen a United fan too.
Just watched the night's matches. Lee Evans missed so many chances against Humphries it was incredible. Fallon super-patchy in her defeat. Not the best session overall.

I think she was added via the Women's Series which was probably created just for that purpose.
For qualifications or invitations?
I'm interested in if she's there on merit or if some other player is missing out so she can be involved by invitation.
Its not a male female thing. Fair play to her in her endeavour and if she's there on merit then excellent
She finished 2nd in the standings - 2 qualified. It served it's purpose. She was miles behind Beau Greaves but Greaves didn't want to miss the WDF WC (which she also won).
There are a few oversees qualifiers she would likely beat anyway as the field is quite bloated these days so most like to see her take part.
She averaged 94/96 I think in the 1st set if she held that she'd have comfortably won that game and maybe a 2nd rounder too, no consistency in her game after the 1st set which she won she fell to pieces
Leung looks very good, hope he stays and has a crack at Q School he's certainly got the game to play on the tour.
GVV's gamesmanship is annoying keeps deliberately dropping his dart when taking them out of the board.
There’s a random YouTube channel that’s seemingly showing all the darts without yet being taken down if you have a look
Leung with the performance and match of the tournament so far, brilliant stuff. Most 180s out of all participants, 96 Avg. And came back from 0:2 after throwing away the second set he shouldve also won comfortably. Curious to see what he can do against Clemens.
On the flipside I wouldve liked to see GVV go far, undeniably one of the biggest talents around. But he still has time, I guess.

Was a shame GVV is out so early, but that Leung comeback was excellent after choking so hard on the second set.
The de Graaf comeback today was impressive too.
Matt Campbell has dumped out James Wade in R2 
Wow, didn't expect that. Wade was on the up the last few months imo.

That'll destroy James, he was playing well like you said.Matt Campbell has dumped out James Wade in R2
He wasn't very forthcoming with a handshake at the end was he?
Think he was more stunned than being sore though.
I didn't see it to be fair.
I don't think many did
I'm a part time darts watcher but always crazy to see how big the level is between the top players and some first round players. Watched a game earlier and some lad was struggling to get 50 on the board.
Probably average 80-90 under no pressure. Huge difference playing in the world championship.
Nice game between Bates and Lennon. Bates misses the bull twice in the same set for a big fish finish. All tied up at 2 apiece now.
Lennon vs. Bates looks a lot better than most of the other 1st round matches I've seen. Final set now.
Beat me to it.
Bates looks one to keep an eye on. Adrenaline getting the better of him in the crunch moments.
Shame the PDC banned him from using his nickname “the Master”
He had a smug, punchable face, but looks a talented prospect.Steve 'the bronzed Adonis' Beaton, Denis 'the heat' Ovens. Back in the day Andy 'the pie man' Smith and Peter 'one dart' Manley were good ones.
How about best walk-ons?!
For me it has to be Vincent van der Voort walking out to Give It Up, sung to his name obviously!!
Always seems to get the party going like no other walk-on!!
Not this year though as he didn't qualify!

I can remember Bob Anderson walking with a horse for the walkon at one time.
Ha Ross Smith just got stung live on tv
Love Willie's Zombie.
Littler looks settled already, only 16 years old, wow.
"You've got school in the morning, school in the morning"
Should be illegal to be this good at 16 , generational talent
, generational talentFecking hell Littler.
Playing since he was 18 months old
Never seen a kid this good.
Never seen a kid this good.
To be fair a lot of snooker and darts players would tell you they were close or near their best around that age, just not on this kind of stageShould be illegal to be this good at 16
Ronnie swears it was at that age he was the best he’s ever been while MVG claims he threw his best darts in exhibitions as a kid v Taylor etc in their prime.
It’s scary
The ease with which he throws 180s is ridiculous
Jesus Christ what a talent he'd have taken most players tonight
Yeah that was incredible.
Darts next superstar. Let's hope it's more MVG/Taylor than Adrian Lewis.
Does anyone know who the 2 players younger than Luke Littler who have played at a world championship?
He's a United fan too.
Quite a few of them in the tournament, him, Rapid Ricky, Asp and Cullen.
