The 2019 World Grand Prix is just a few days away and the championship appears wide open. In having to reach on a double to start the leg the format of the important has lent itself to lots of upsets through the years. This means that there is a jolt or two early on.
There are many players currently playing some darts at the moment and youll be able to make a case. The fact its possible to locate Michael Van Gerwen at 15/8 is currently telling of his form just it is and lately. We may return at the end of the week and most importantly say of course MVG went to win, hes the best player on earth. However, with short games at the start and the arrangement, I would look at a couple at prices that are larger.
Looking at the attraction, there is no simple half of it. Having said this, but the bottom half is definitely harder. There are a number of yummy looking first round games, such as Rob Cross v Mensur Suljovic and Gerwyn Price v Dave Chisnall. Chizzy got to the Gibraltar Darts Trophy final, losing out to Krzysztof Ratajski who finds himself in this aspect of the draw, last week. Chisnall struck a nine darter and it looks like he is being actually helped by his darts. Me would worry, although before the draw, I liked the appearance of Price, whos just getting better. I am not backing any bets for the tournament.
Rather, I am looking in the half of the attraction for my choices. Yes, Michael Van Gerwen is still in this half but he is beatable. He needs to undergo his first two games but you never know in the Grand Prix. He could face fellow countryman Jeffery de Zwaan in the second round that he beat him at the 2018 World Matchplay. Whoever makes it throughout that region of the draw??I hope to confront my very first selection JAMES WADE (best price 25-1).
The two-time Grand Prix winner obviously adores this tournament. Having to start on a suits Wade awarded his impeccable record on them. It is a clich?? however he actually is a clutch player. Legs will slip from nowhere. Since the birth of his son he appears to have become much more relaxed. His return to the Premier League saw him end in third place.
Recently he reached two semi-finals from the European Matchplay and New Zealand Experts. He then followed up with his fifth largest PDC name of the year a month in the Players Championship at Barnsley. He arrives in Dublin in powerful form and also with happy memories here. With a good draw I think Wade is marginally on the side at 25/1. As MVG very well understands after his jolt 2017 exit to the Scotsman, his game against John Henderson is going to not be a pushover. I will observe the Machine moving far in the 21, if Wade can get past that using some momentum behind him.
My next bet is MICHAEL SMITH (best cost 22-1). Certainly that major is only round the corner? He keeps knocking on the door at big events and you would think he will go all of the way later or earlier. He was in the World Matchplay final against Cross but it was yet another impressive run at a big for the Bully Boy. He had some disappointing exits from the Players Championship in Barnsley that might be a factor supporting his cost. This does not worry me, but as Smith seems to put in a run at the big events.
His capability is sensational and when he could land his doubles at a good pace he could defeat anyone. He could be a frustrating player to watch and may be his own worst enemy at times. He works herself up a lot over missed chances that he carries into the leg rather than just forgetting about that. Hes a pleasure to watch when hes on song however.
Hes got a quarter of the attraction. Of course no games are simple but a player of Smiths calibre should get Simon Whitlock and then Joe Cullen or Ian White in his first two matches. I imagine hes more determined than ever to win that major that he deserves. He has all of the ability in the world and I dont doubt hell go on to win several majors. This week offers a ideal chance.
