Dennis Priestlety V Colin Lloyd
Dennis Priestley continued his awesome assault on last nights Premier League when he beat Colin Lloyd by 8 – 5 and stayed top of the tree.
The Menace spotted with a new sponsor in Winmau, was not on top form for the high scores and had a lower average than Lloyd.
However, as he said in the interview after his big finishes were crucial and without them Lloyd who played very well again would have won.
Adrian Lewis V Roland Scholten
No one needed a win more than Roland Scholten and he had a tough battle against Adrian Lewis. Lewis started very slowly and Scholten was soon 4 – 1 up. However, Lewis stormed back into the game at 5 – 4 up, but the flying Dutchman nearly hit a perfect nine darter to get him back in the match, and kept his momentum to go on and win 8 -5 for his first win in the Premier League.
Terry Jenkins V Peter Manley
Seen by some as the pre-match warm up for Taylor & Barneveld, this game erupted to life with Manley hitting 6 perfect darts, and the legs traded with throw all the way to 6 all. The crowd got being this intense game with both players trying to prove a point.
However, Manley was the first to lose his throw and Jenkins held his throw to close out a great game 8 -6.
Phil Taylor V Raymond Van Barneveld
The biggest game since Januaries PDC World Championships was not to disappoint, as Phil Taylor staged a comeback similar to Barneys against him in the World Final to win 8-6.
Barneveld came out of the blocks with his usual effortless grace and punished Taylor who looked by far the more unsettled of the two, and Barneveld found himself 5 -1 up with the crowd hysterically chanting “Easy Easy”.
However, someone must have given Taylor a dam good slap back stage as he came out with fire in his eyes to stage an unbelievable comeback as he trotted off 5 straight legs with no reply from the cool Dutchman.
With Barney on the ropes and haemorrhaging legs he was left a daunting 116 that he took to level the game at 6 a piece with his throw to come.
However, with darts at double top to guarantee a draw at worse, he missed, and the rest as they say is history as Taylor nailed double 16, held his throw and won the match 8 -6.
