[BDO] 2018 Lakeside World Professional Darts Championship #1

Als het opwarmertje in Alexandra Palace er eindelijk op zit is het tijd voor het absolute hoofdgerecht van het dartsjaar. Want zeg nou zelf: wie geniet er niet van de arm van Mark McGeeney, de onderkin van Willem Mandigers, de heerlijk lege blik van Richard Veenstra of het algehele voorkomen van Ross 'The Boss' Montgomery? Uiteraard zal Jackie ook weer van de partij zijn om iedereen, maar toch vooral Geert de Vos en Andy Baetens, van de nodige support te voorzien.

Brekket:

De oplettende lezer zal de naam van Ratatata missen. Die heeft dus vriendelijk bedankt voor deelname, waardoor wij ons kunnen verheugen op een optreden van Gary Robson,

Met Pengiran Mohamed bin Pengiran Haji Matarsad doet er dus een Bruneier mee (heywoodu vindt dit leuk) en hij is van plan het Bruneise darten op de kaart te zetten.

quote:

Pengiran Mohamed hopes that his breakthrough in reaching the world stage can help highlight that there is potential for Brunei to earn recognition on a global scale.

“My intention to invest my time in darts is to show the world that Brunei darts are of the highest quality and not far off than other world ranked players,” said Pengiran Mohamed in an interview.

The darts player highlighted that there is a tough challenge against professional players before adding that he has played darts for 30 years.

Asked about his plans in preparation for the world-level tournament, Pengiran Mohamed said, “I will continue my training in preparation for London because the players there are difficult to play against. I have to be prepared both mentally and physically.

“My hope is to succeed in BDO for the first time for Asia even though it is difficult but if we are determined and confident we can succeed.”

Wel typerend dat de enige speler die dit toernooi nog enig niveau had kunnen geven zijn middelvinger opsteekt en je er Gary Robson voor terug krijgt.
