The PDC has done a brilliant job at making darts and especially the World Championship so international. A lot better than snooker, though obviously it's easier for people to buy and find room for darts boards than snooker tables, in other countries.
Yes, but still a shame that Seigo Asada didn't qualify for the WC. In my opinion...he is still the best Asian player that the Ally Pally has ever seen.
@@GregHelms420 Why should I? As I have already written, this is my opinion. It looks like you can't give an opinion here without attracting the hate of others.
A major afternoon of major shocks! Tomoya Goto should feel proud of that win because he is showing that Japan can play steel tip. And for De Graaf… honestly who would have thought that he would win against Edhouse 3-2 after being 2-0 down?! Nobody!!! Also feel happy for Campbell for winning against Wade.
And there goes Ian's tour card, I believe. Also, heart's breaking a little for Wade here, this is quite an upset. Except that Wade didn't show sportsmanship there, come on now!
The Asian players have lit up the worlds so far a winner from Asia would flood the pdc with amazing talent.their darts action is incredible to watch and don’t get any nerves.one of my all time favourites was hashimoto what a reception he got…
So so Happy for Degraaf - i saw the match from 0-2 in sets & his comeback was fantastic to watch . Happy for the new comers to win at least one match ! At 18.59 - look at those treble 19 grouping - Marvelously executed . He did not give up & it paid off
End of an era this year. Russ Bray calling his last final. Apparently they’ve made a great tribute video. Goodbye message like Taylor and even a walk on. Mint
Shows you how the rest of the world has caught up with us, yes we still have some great players but this will become even more common in the next decade
Scary to see Ian White's form in recent years tail off, especially as the floor form is what he has built on for the past decade, his TV form is sadly never shown fully, hopefully he can hold onto his tour card, still needs results to go his way. While Campbell couldn't buy a win on here, now has 2 & can relax for Christmas, in before he goes a run to the latter stages. Brings up the argument made in commentary of whether he can break into the top 32. Well a run here to say L16/QF would push him into top 40 and can go into 2024 with the hope of that next jump in.
Sad to read comments like this. Maybe it's because of his mental health issues that he looks so miserable. He's got a better lifestyle than most people. I agree that he doesn't react well to losing.
Lots of comments about Campbell and rightly so it was a good win but Jeffrey de Graaf’s comeback showed real character and Goto played well too against Ian White.
Wade's "I'll definitely be a world champion" schtick is becoming funnier year after year. He was never going to win the WC as he is simply not good enough. The fans who keep making excuses make me laugh harder and harder.
Agreed. He hasn't won a major since 2021. And he's forever deadlocked in reaching the Semis on his best day in the world championship. That's his limit.
@@UnitedReds99That’s the key. When he first arrived his finishing masked the scoring but nowadays there are so many players hitting 180s every leg James is under pressure all the time. He’s one of the great finishers, although not today, but it’s not going to be enough I fear.
Edhouse'd it. You never want this to happen to you in a big tournament or anytime. Example: Richie Edhouse was up 2-0, had match darts to win and he dribbled down his leg and let his opponent comeback to win 3-2.
@@MELLYBOY58 Yeah he said before the game in his interview that he recently quit his job at the NHS to become a full time Darts professional.. doesn't seem to have done him any good 😂
Every time James Wade has this kind of disgust in his face, he may be thinking: "what am i doing here, with all this players around me, wearing polyester shirts in foolish colors, with foolish prints on their backs, and the people, sitting around their smelly beer tables, acting like morons, are even worse. Why can't i be at home, watching all the stupids on tele, enjoying my drink... He never went with the masses, thank god, still a person of his own!!!
Some people think it's because of his mental health issues [that Wade made public some years ago for some reason] that he acts the way he does, and it's not a lack of respect on his part.
De Graaf and Campbell capitalised on some very poor darts by their opposition. They were coasting ahead and just couldn’t apply the finish and let them come back and then chucking poor darts. The winners deserve the win but a huge let down.
Wow.. who saw that coming from De Graaf being 2-0 down.. Goto cracked the Diamond.. and The Machine getting chewed up? All the English lot getting bullied by the international crew 🤣
Lots of people ragging on James Wade, I didn't see it as a lack of sportsmanship, but more of an absolute frustration at his record at the palace. He's been on terrific form and once again falls, he is nicknamed the machine for his lack of emotion after all... That being said, as a Canadian, super pumped for Matt Campbell!!
I remember a while back, James Wade was moaning about the commentators not bragging about him enough. Ever since, they go over the top with it. Harping on about how brilliant he is. If that was the case, why, when he's been playing longer than almost all of them, has he never won the World Championship? Because he's a bottler, and not anywhere near as good as they make him out to be. Nothing makes me happier than seeing him go out in the first round. He will NEVER be a World Champion!

Lets go Matt Campbell ‼️ make Hamilton proud 🇨🇦
Go Canada!🙂👍
As a fellow Hamiltonian I am also proud already
Go Canada !
Goto is the go to man. Im loving these results for the Asian players this year! 👏🏿
this tournament really shows we shouldn't ever underestimate the asian qualifiers

I didn't know that we did.
I swear James Wade will be the best darts player to never win a World Championship once he decides to hang it up
So no 9 darters in this world championship😢
He’ll also be the least gracious player to ever play in the world championships
@@benthewheel30 Not necessarily. A 9 darter could still happen even without Wade, as the previous 2 World Championships have shown us

Can’t stand him for that reason alone
Can’t stand him full stop 😢
James Wade is the biggest kid going, no decorum or class in defeat.
As a neutral does make me happy to see him lose when he acts so childish
True
yeah

De Graaf is Dutch though. He lives in Sweden cause his girlfriend is Swedish I believe.

He didn't refuse it, you can see it if you watch closely. Still very obnoxious behaviour though.

With James out of the tournament, the overall sportsmanship on the stage will rise by 500% overnight. Bye bye, James, you won't be missed.

Great afternoon all together. Really interesting matches.
@GQ I agree

He's never had the scoring power to mix it with the absolute elite Darters, great finisher but you need more than that to be a World Champion

I can't believe campbell just breaks out the machine to place in round 3
Piss poor at the end there by Wade, have some respect for your opponent ffs
yup! total arrogance at the end
Some people think it's because of his mental health issues [that Wade made public some years ago for some reason] that he acts the way he does, and it's not a lack of respect on his part.
