PDC Darts 2018; The Taylor Finale

[the dza]

Nice one Taylor!

 

[paxtonwolf]

That was more like the old Taylor. Might be a match yet

 

[the dza]

Here we go, Taylor with a set on the board, good man!

 

[Parklaner81]

This was the reason I fancied Taylor...let's see if he can keep it up.

 

[the dza]

If he can win the first leg of the next set, against the throw, then he might put a dent the confidence of Cross. Cross doesn't seem to get too bothered by things though.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Taylor wrong side of the wire for the 9-darter and the loses the leg

 

[paxtonwolf]

I think that could be a killer

 

[Parklaner81]

Taylor losing that 8/9 dart leg was big. Cross straight back on top now he let that go...

 

[the dza]

Nothing phases Cross, he's a machine!

 

[the dza]

Such a shame about that 9-darter for Taylor, would have loved to see that go in.

 

[Parklaner81]

Nothing phases Cross, he's a machine!

The way this is going, if Taylor gets more than one more set I'll be surprised. Didn't see it this one-sided.

Would have been fitting with him never having hit one at the Worlds

 

[Baleforce]

absolutely sensational from Cross, he’s gone up another level here, to do this in a final against Taylor

 

[Parklaner81]

Done :

Cross 7-3, 9/1
Cross 7-4, 8/1
Taylor 7-5, 13/2

I'm certainly not feeling so smug anymore about having Taylor at 13/2 outright...

 

[paxtonwolf]

I'm certainly not feeling so smug anymore about having Taylor at 13/2 outright...

Even that 7-3 to Cross is looking unlikely right now

 

[Rock Strongo]

Has Cross missed a double yet?

 

[Parklaner81]

This is off the scale from Cross. Doesn't even look like missing a double

 

[the dza]

Taylor not even playing badly, Cross is just a terminator armed with darts at the moment.

 

[Parklaner81]

Not bad, but he's not playing well. His average is flattered by the fact he's not throwing at many finishes.

 

[the dza]

If Cross leaves double 18, they might as well just call the leg for Cross before he throws it.
