Whitlock versus Pipe, “The Wizard” will cast a winning spell!
The UK Open has kicked off in amazing fashion as the best in the world of darts face-off in hopes of becoming the best in the world.
It all began as Ted Hankey made an early exit from the tournament, causing havoc all over the headlines. It was sad to see a darts legend making an embarrassing return to darts and the PDC.
Now, the focus is on the battle between Simon Whitlock and Justin Pipe. This is considered as the most interesting face-off in the UK open till date.
The reason why this match is of such interest among the darts universe is the fact that Whitlock faced the great Phil Taylor in the McCoy’s Premier League final a month ago. His improvement at the game of darts has been outstanding, as he made his way to
the final in an impressive manner.
It was last month’s premier league that saw “The Wizard” taking on the massively talented and the former World number one Adrian Lewis, in the toughest match before Taylor’s battle.
Lewis had his confidence sky high, as he defeated “The Power” in the early round of the Premier league. Whitlock versus Lewis was considered an easy bet as Lewis was assumed as an obvious winner.
On the contrary, Whitlock wiped off Lewis and ended his fantasies of winning the league. Not only that, “The Wizard” threw “The Jackpot” out of the premier league fair and square, giving the biggest upset the premier league has ever seen.
Later on, Whitlock entered the final and lost against Taylor, yet, his level of play saw him at his best.
Justin Pipe, on the other hand, has been out of his touch for a very long time now. He has given good results but lacks the winning material. He has been a little too busy with his rivalry with Kevin Painter.
Pipe needs to think ahead of his rivalry and focus on winning. Whitlock is not an easy opponent by any means, as he has gotten the taste of the best in last month’s premier league.
Pipe versus Whitlock is the easiest bet as Whitlock, without a shadow of a doubt, will defeat Pipe with ease.
