The Heat is on fire 8)

Hamilton is in really good form this year, his style of play annoys me for some reason whenever he's on TV but if there's someone who has deserved a PL spot over the last few years without getting one it's him.

Denis Ovens really has seen a dramatic upturn in form over the last few weeks, as if i'm right in saying, he hadn't had the best start to the year in terms of results?

Luring the field into a false sense of security before his World Championship push this coming December.

Las Vegas wasn't ideal for the telly so it's not a surprise that it's been dumped from the schedules. The cricket format is popular in North America so it's as good a place as any to have the World Cricket Championships there. There's also a couple of Players Championships events going on too which will determine the final line-ups for both Blackpool and the European Championships.

The World Cup will be on Sky Sports in early December.

Things are heating up for the final place(s) at Blackpool ... with Gary Anderson winning Monday's event in Vegas it puts him 16th in the PDC order of merit.

It means that Paul Nicholson is in danger of not making it to the Matchplay - he'll need to put in a better showing than Anderson and/or Heydon in today's final event to be sure of his place.

Gary Anderson would still qualify if he ended up outside the top 16 wouldn't he ?

Aye, he's sitting 3rd in the Players Championship OOM (as of June 20th) so should he fall below 16th in the PDC OOM then that'll be his back up.

All evening sessions except the first two quarter finals which take place on the Friday afternoon. I'll miss the third and fourth night's play, but will see the rest thankfully.

Hopefully be able to catch most of it then, far prefer tournament darts to the Premier League.
