Lewis was disappointed at the checkout
Especially in the first two sets, only one of the 16 attempts in doubles won by one leg could be used, which felt like a loss to Lewis’ weak performance.
In the third round, “Jackpot” caught a bit, shone in the ‘180s and gave a sign of life with a 3: 1. But despite a 2-0 lead, he gave up the fourth set. (Statistics Louis vs. Bagish
Former superstar Alexandra Palace, considered one of the best Dart geniuses, hangs his head from the stage.
Baggish becomes the first real surprise man at this World Championship. The 37-year-old, nicknamed the “Gambler”, scored his second victory in the first 170 finishes of the World Cup.
Whitelock and Labanauskas offer a high class competition
In another high class second round battle, “Wizard” Simon Whitlock successfully defeated the dangerous Darius Labana aus Scas.

Wittlock also set a new record of 10 for 180 in the tournament in Ali Pali. (Statistics on Whitlock Lock vs Labana aus scas)
