Darts: Phil Taylor Wins Again!
Phil Taylor once again showed off his talents to win yet another darts title. He blew past Raymond van Barnevled to win his 11th World Matchplay Darts Championship. The World Matchplay is a dart competition that was held at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool.
At the beginning stages of the match Raymond and Phil, online betting favorites, played cat and mouse with the score. But Taylor used his expertise and calm demeanor and blew past his opponent as the match drew to a close.
Two different times van Barneveld had the chance to get even with Taylor. Instead Taylor used his inner strength to produce 100+ checkouts and went on to a win with the match with a score of 18-12.
Taylor told Sky Sports that “I’m absolutely over the moon. I am turning fifty years old next month, and I’m champion of the world! Listen, I really do not care what people think about me. Whether they love me or whether they hate me but I’m on top of the world (and) I am loving every minute of it!”
Phil Taylor can now add the Matchplay title to his fifth Premier League Crow that he won earlier this year. He came away unbeaten this year.
