What a topsy turvy set THIS turned out to be! Breaks all over the place for the first three legs, but Adams showed some real bottle at the end of the set. This is a cracking final even if the standard is iffy.

What an awesome game of darts this is. Again, standard not great, but this is, as Sid would say, pure darting drama.

Winning the 3rd set of the match has been the catalyst for Winstanley. Had he not won that this would have been over by now. As it is, we're witnessing a cracking match. Still fancy one more late rally from Adams before it's over.

Yeah, scary lady! Perhaps the stress and strain of having to face her has caused Winstanley to age so prematurely...

The bottle showed there with the two combo finishes leaving 16s at the end. Words can't do this justice though.

This is just ridiculously good. The f**k ups just add to the craziness of the whole thing. Give me an uber dramatic match like this any day of the week. I do agree with the commentators and did at the time that Winstanley should have gone for the big 164. I think you should ALWAYS go for the finish when you can.

I'd wager that 95% of dart players on that stage would have done exactly the same thing as Winstanley. Adams wasn't on a finish at the time, and it left Winstanley's favourite double. Obviously taking that chance didn't work out, but he done the right thing based on the scoring at the time.
