16 x World Champion Phil Taylor recently gave an interview about the opportunities he sees for players in the modern era. He almost seems to wish to be able to start again:
Usher, who entered the finale having won Group B on Thursday & Friday, won both of his Group Phase matches, in defeating David Pallett and Dan Read to book his place....
Justin Smith also progressed through to Saturday’s finale, after finishing on 10 points overall, but finished behind Usher on leg difference, as David Pallett edged past Nick Kenny on leg difference
Nick Kenny took the early lead, in winning three of his four matches, as he recorded victories over Graham Usher, Jarred Cole and David Pallett, with his only defeat coming against Justin Smith.
