2-0 Taylor, that was a lot better.
I can see Anderson absolutely destroying Taylor should they reach the QF
Possibly but Taylor will only improve. Very nervy tonight but couldn’t fault that considering the hype. He’s probably happy to be just up on the Oche as opposed to doing countless interviews.
Ooby dooby Dobey.
Was waiting for that
Dobey has the Icelandic flag on the flights of his darts. This would be one hell of a beating for Taylor.
Taylor not dancing now
Job done.
Taylor crawls over the line.
His finishing was steady tbf, really good on D16 too which can be a weakness for him.
Bdo standard performance from Taylor. Hasn’t a hope in this.
I think I’ve heard the tune of Rob Cross’s walk on music before.
Number 14 seed Benito van des Pas is OUT! Beaten 3-1 by Steve West.
Big Brendan Dolan won his preliminary match and will also play the last match in this afternoon session.
Cracking day of sport on the box.
Drama as a blown light bulb has stopped play as Mervyn King leads Zoran Lerchbacher 2-0.
Play stopped here over a blown bulb! Merv nearly blows a fuse!
Another shock, number 22 seed Mervyn King is dumped out 3-2 by Zoran Lerchbacher. The Austrian came from 2 sets down.
Being in the Prelim round may be a serious advantage for Dolan here.
I’d say Dolan can sleep standing up.
Nice 126 C/O from Dolan on the Bull to win opening leg of Set 2.
