Who will rule darts in 2013?
Whenever any championship of any sport is about to take place, it is the mania of betting and gambling that gains pace for the best contender or who is most apt for grabbing the trophy.
In the year 2013, there are various darts championships and trophies coming underway.
Similarly, the top contenders of the game are all set and geared to demonstrate their darting skills in each of these championships.
One of the prominent events that is about to grip and enthrall darts audience will be the O2 event.
However, before qualifying for the game, all the players will have to face another preliminary stage, where they will have to showcase their skills and potential.
Some of the key contenders who have always been a source of constant attention and captivation for darts audience and fans are Taylor, Lewis, Barney, Anderson and Wade.
Each of them has the right attitude and that right attitude is coupled with the right temperament that helps in producing the perfect cocktail of success.
During the course of this article, we will be looking at the probability that each of these players have in securing and winning the World Championship trophy.
Considering the people’s champion first, it is Phil Taylor, who suffered a knock out at the last Ladbrokes World Championship, after getting defeated at the hands of an amateur, Dave Chisnall.
Since then, he has been restructuring his routine and also his breakfast, through which he can restore his initial momentum.
Interestingly, it is expected that Phil Taylor and the current World Champion Adrian Lewis will meet each other in a competition prior to the beginning of O2.
Even though shaky, it is also capricious even for darts pundits to predict who will be able to claim the victory.
Taylor has always been the people’s favourite, whereas Lewis is known for the tremendous comebacks he can make at any point during the game.
He shocked and silenced most of his critics in the thrilling semi-final that he had with James Wade at Ladbrokes in 2011.
Taylor, on the other hand, no doubt has the confidence to perform miracles when standing on the oche, but for some time it seems as if he is losing grip on his very own darts.
He is losing the zeal and the enthusiasm required to maintain consistency. Hence, even after much doubt, chances of winning are 60% for Taylor and the remaining 40% for Lewis.
Other prominent players in mainstream darts, especially of PDC circuit, include Barney, Wade and Anderson.
Out of the three, it is Wade who has always been known for his sneaking capabilities of turning the game in his side, in the most dangerous ways possible.
Even before the beginning of Ladbrokes World Championship, veteran darts players like Eric Bristow were betting that players like Wade are second best to Taylor.
Despite the fact that Wade was chucked out from the race by Lewis, there are still chances that he can make his way to the top.
Barney, who shares the status of being the top darts player of Netherlands, is still going through a tough time to recover his form and channelize his game in the right direction.
Last, but not the least, Gary Anderson has also enjoyed the status of being the World Champion of darts.
However, in recent times, he has been suffering from a similar plague like Taylor, the plague of losing his nerve, which is in some way or the other, the most pivotal feature of darts.
With all these champions gathering under one roof, it will definitely be an exhilaration filled encounter.
