Players that you remember for only one thing

Post by Rogg » Sat Feb 17, 2024 10:04 pm

What players do you remember for pretty much only one thing? Maybe for one thing they did or said, or for one game they played in.

My example:

Rene Eidams. For dragging MvG into a terrifying tie-break at the Worlds.

Won in 2016, then pretty much did nothing of note until winning his tour card this year.

The highlight was that immediately after winning the youth title he announced he's off to the PDC, and some of the BDO family got upset on social media :D
