Terry Jenkins played in both tournaments, got to the last 16 in Day one. He must have gotten bored with retirement and is back playing again.

Back and as bald as a golfball!
Apparently due to alopecia brought on by a car accident a year ago.

Hardly surprising. The only thing more overweight than a darts player is a retired darts player!

Sounds a little bitter, but I hope he makes a full recovery.

this is what I came across, when browsing yt. Madness from Lewis.

Ultimate Seduction

Willie O Connor beat Padgett 6-0 with a 114 average in the euro qualifiers! Hon the magpie!!

Ultimate Seduction

Willie qualified for the German darts masters along with Cameron Menzies who hit a 9 darter today

Glenn Durrant averaged 133.6 in Isle of Mann Classic (last 16). Very very impressive if even over only 4 legs, won 4-0

That's 4 11 dart legs (or 2 12s and 2 10s etc).
It's great but not unknown for someone to do that in a stretch within a long game.

Kinda shows what's actually possible in a short game in the right circumstances - MVGs much lauded 123 average in the PL that time could conceivably be smashed by a relative unknown getting 140+ in a Grand Slam group game or something like that.
Ironically your opponent can really bump you up, if you score 180,140,145 against the throw but your opponent goes out in 12 darts then you come out of the leg with a 155 average.

You can lose a best of 11 with a 158 average while the winner averages 77. No 9 darters either.

Love the numbers in this game, mind boggling. This fella is well worth a follow

and beat Rob Cross 6-0 on the way too, definitely the most consistent at the moment.
