    In his Debut season Hamilton beat 2 times & then current world champion Alonso in the same car (2007) if i remember correctly in one of the final races of the season Hamilton crashed in the pit lane in China - i think a race that could have won him his first championship - Hamilton is in a class of his own in F1 , these racers dont come around that often ...... Clark, Lauda , Senna , Schuey , Hamilton

    They are singing even when they are throwing the darts.

    I'm surprised they go down to the treble 16 region so quickly as well, in the distant past I remember them sticking at going for the treble 20 more.

    Cross is a machine. Never seen anyone hit as many 180s.

    That was unbelievable.
    Five treble eighteens then double 16, with his last six darts.
    Goodnight Phil, put your darts away.

    Midway Taylor missed a chance for a potential comeback at least, but when that slipped it felt over. No pressure on Cross.

    Great performance , didn't think he would raise it again after his semi final but fair play - end of an era, I've grown up watching Taylor be strange to watch it without him , wouldn't have the great performances in darts like we regularly get now if he didnt raise the bar year after year

    It's best like this, it's the true nature of sport and life, Don Bradman didn't get a 100 batting average as he was bowled out for a duck in his last innings, Tiger Woods never broke Nicklaus' 18 majors - women and injuries saw to that, Gerrard won the CL but slipped against Chelsea, Roy Jones Jnr kept on fighting when he should have quit after beating Ruiz.. and so on
