2022 World Matchplay: Daryl Gurney hits no-look 180
Darts is a staple of many households across the country.
The wild crowds serve as a reminder of the insane atmosphere at an event which includes bright clothes and thunderous walkout music. Oh, and plenty of booze usually as well.
Even if you don’t watch darts, you likely know the dramatic cry of ‘ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY’ as a player achieves the maximum score.
That’s exactly what happened in this match between Daryl Gurney and Gary Anderson.
They faced each other in the first round of the World Matchplay tournament and it was an epic encounter. Gurney has never previously won this competition while Anderson has achieved this feat once before in 2018.
Though, the former champion won’t be adding a second World Matchplay tournament win to his accolades as he crashed out of the competition in this match.
He lost 10-7 to Gurney, with one of the final blows being delivered in iconic fashion.
