    where has MdD’s form come from, if this was athletics he’d be suspected of taking PED’s. 🤣


    Great for darts that there’s loads of different players capable of winning a tournament


    Makes a change from watching years ago hoping someone could fluke a win against Taylor

    I’m starting to warm towards Humphries, he’s got a touch of class/humility about him

    MdD needed that D16 badly if he lost that set it looked like he was imploding

    Humph has definitely turned it back on. 4-3 and back on throw.

    Great final

    Fair dues to De Decker, would've been easy to fold when it went to 4-4

    De decker has been around the big time about 18 months or so now.

    It's a far cry from the likes of burnett,Walton,klaasen winning titles coming from obscurity when there was no mass tv coverage.

    The existence of the pro tour all but ended that really.

    Other than round 1 it had been one of the most disappointing majors for some time but that was an excellent final tonight.

    Pleased for De Decker. He wouldn't have been my pick for any of the games bar last light but as impressive a run from an outsider as there has been.

    Great stuff from de Decker

    Showed a lot of bottle from 4-4, and ok Humphries wasn't at his best, but he had a spell there in the middle of the game where he knocked in 3 big finishes and de Decker could well have folded

    Takes a good player to beat someone like LH over the long set format (as oppoosed to the Matchplay or UK Open)

    He won a floor tournament during the summer I'm pretty sure and has always been regarded as a good floor player who hasn't brought it to the stage

    Now that he has, will be interesting to see where he goes

    And LH - always gracious in defeat
