2018 Unibet Masters

Post by The Thorn » Tue Jan 02, 2018 2:41 pm

So Masters coming up next for Uncle Baz's gaff. Probably the least significant TV event of the year. Anyway it'll be good to see proper darts after the misery that is Lakeshite.

There's the draw, any thoughts?
After Cross' rise to 3rd, MVG and Gando are now in the same side of the bracket in majors. Makes it a bit more interesting.

(1) Michael van Gerwen – (16) Kim Huybrechts
(8) Simon Whitlock – (9) James Wade
(4) Gary Anderson – (13) Benito van de Pas
(5) Daryl Gurney – (12) Gerwyn Price
(2) Peter Wright – (15) Alan Norris
(7) Dave Chisnall – (10) Raymond van Barneveld
(3) Rob Cross – (14) Ian White
(6) Mensur Suljovic – (11) Michael Smith

MvG basically has a bye to the semis then. Quite a lot of dead wood in the top 16 still, I expect next year there'll be much change

Yeah never really got the Masters. Literally every other event has some kind of meaning or strategic interest, there is very little in this tournament that doesn't exist in the others

Bit of a coiled spring there, oche.

Thorn has notable mushroom sympathies, for which I scold him regularly.

Have they said they are playing on night 1 or you're just assuming they will?

It's good business to put them together night one, so it will happen.

It's the must see match now, course they are gonna put it on first.

Personally I'd rather they wait a bit. I used to like seeing the big PL matches a bit later, and built towards. The early Taylor and Barney days they used to let them dispatch a few others and build anticipation to the match, now they just spunk it on night one.

Can do without the ridiculous countdown clock they had though.

Wade, Benito, Norris.

Kim may get saved by hardly getting down to a double.
