The chronic World Champion Berwyn Price scratched in the forehead, then he left the biggest Darts stage in the world full of frustration. Instead of redeeming the desired and full-bodied era instead of a second title, the former rugby professional from Wales has already excreted in the World Cup quarter. He has to watch his closest rivals the 25 kilograms of heavy Sid Waddell Trophy and prize money of 500,000 pounds (around 595,000 euros). At the 4: 5 defeat in a high-class duel with England Michael Smith, the Iceman also handed a rare nine-darter.
Price 'farewell presentation at this World Cup was highly emotional. First, he celebrated the perfect game usually euphorically and loudly, later, the 36-year-old delighted into a dispute with a fan, who brought him out of the concept. Price felt so irritated at the high-class quarterfinals that he briefly, briefly interrupted his throwing series to inform the referee about the fault. Winner Smith explained after the game: Somebody from behind constantly called my name, that brought me out. Price wrote at Instagram at night only: Cheats — which means fraudster in German.
No trace of Phil-Taylor dominance
The ancillary noise, the nine-darter and the gripping match against Smith is likely to be forgotten, which will remain out of the self-confident muscle. Especially since Price before the World Cup still compared with record-world champion Phil Taylor (16 World Cup titles) and announced at Sky Sports: Give me for two or three years more, then I will be much more dominant, even if I already World Champion and Ranklisterster am.
He not only wanted to be as dominant as his current rival Michael Van Ger wen (Netherlands) in recent years, but as the Englishman with the nickname The Power since 2018 was hard to beat for years. I'll probably look to create it more in the direction of a Phil-Taylor dominance, priced price. He's not only about three weeks later, he's going on his World Cup title, but must also be the status as number one in 2022.
Since World Cup title, Price has won only a major tournament
Of course, such statements and such stoats are part of the business where the World Association PDC deserves and deducts this as prize money to his players. Nevertheless, there was hardly a basis for the World Cup to believe in an era of Price. Since his World Cup titled a year ago he had only won a major tournament. For comparison: his compatriot Jonny Clayton, just the number eight of the world, secured four of the coveted trophies alone during this period.
Price had a real court momentum in the World Cup tournament at the 3: 2 against Belgium Kim Huybrechts and almost made this again, this time rejected two match darts. The strongly boiling Smith, who had previously taken Clayton from the tournament, then came back to the game and won in the end earned. He called the win over Price one of the best evenings of my career.
