Adi Lewis is meant to be pretty handy.
I wonder if would have gone for Price like that?
Didn't Lewis talk some shit about Price years ago at the Matchplay? Lewis has probably done fuck all since then as well, whereas Price is playing the sort of darts Lewis could play if he could be arsed to haul his fat arse into gear.

Four years ago after Price had done him in 2015:
Adrian Lewis launched a stinging attack on Gerwyn Price, after defeating the Welshman 11-5 to book his place in the quarter-finals of the World Matchplay on Tuesday evening.

The pair were embroiled in a war of words of social media prior to Tuesday’s showdown, after Price memorably defeated Jackpot at the same stage twelve months ago. However, in his post-match interview, the two-time world champion was unable to hide his disdain towards ‘The Iceman’.

Lewis stated: “I was rubbish and that just shows why he’s a nobody. He turned up there and bottled it, simple as that. Between greatness and not so great, that just showed tonight. All I’m going to say, is that you can practice all you want, but you can’t practice crapping yourself.”

Price has claimed two Pro Tour victories in 2016, incidentally more than Lewis, although in the build up to Tuesday’s clash, Jackpot retorted: “He’s won a couple of tournaments, but that’s because all the top boys aren’t there. He’s gone up there and sneaked a couple.”

It was an extremely scrappy affair, with Lewis averaging 84, to Price’s 82. Yet Jackpot remained in bullish mood, insisting that he has plenty more gears to go through. “That was nothing today. I won there in neutral. I’m quite happy with that really; to get a bit of revenge after all of his mouthing off,” he added.
It's hilarious reading that now. Price has won two majors, Lewis has done nothing.
2020 World Grand Prix Lucky Dip winner!
2x 2019 Q-School Lucky Dip winner!

Both as valuable as the Lakeside piss pot!

I suspect Lewis has peaked and won’t get anywhere near the top again. I always think he got very lucky against Wade in the “windgate” semi final a few years back. Wade should have won the worlds that year 😟

That stinking attitude is why Lewis is not world no. 2, 3, 4 ish irritating van Gerwen by nicking big trophies off him on a regular basis.

This debate is far more interesting than that last game and I like both Cross and Bunting.

And only had one dart at double to win.
Shame for him that it wasn't D10.

Crazy to think I can still vividly remember the incident and it was over 8 years ago now.

Just looked it up, and the highest average Lewis faced was Wade's 94. Lewis got a fairly easy run by modern PDC standards.

Wow, really?
Maybe there should be a thread for "easiest route to a major final or tournament win" instead of the one discussed earlier today.
