Currently smashing it up at the palace as we speak.
He's 16!!!
You will be hearing his name for many years to come!
I backed him to win the tournament & e/w 30/1 on B365.
Logic says that when he comes up against the Van Gerwens and Prices experience will probably show. But the more I think about it, he was so ice cold for the majority of that match last night I wouldn't put it past him.
I don't think he'll win it, but the draw has opened up very nicely for him. Think he can make quarters/semis, which would still be a fantastic achievement at 16
Mad because he's had these sorts of averages on the MODUS tour and the youth tour, but to be able to produce them on the biggest stage of all, on his debut, is incredible.
Will be interesting to see how he reacts to going behind. I imagine he'll meet Dobey in the semis and Chris's scoring power could unsettle him
Not sure why the "Luke the Nuke" thread was closed tbh. It's about a specific player and his ongoing progress in the sport, which would get lost in here.
Luke the Nuke will be in this thread for decades to come!!
I get that, but why not his own thread to log his personal progress etc? Seems strange and a snap decision to close it imo.
I do hope Scott Williams concentrates on his darts later instead of his silly comments and prancing about. Match will be tough enough and you dont need to needle MVG as this will be hard enough.

16???
Unbelievably good. Jeez
Can you imagine Gerwyn Price acting like that?

After the mess of the 10th leg in the final set, the standard in the decider was incredible.
No one can compete with MVG when he's at his very best though, so depends on if he can bring that to this year's tournament.
