Hi Guys
The tournaments are coming thick and fast.
I'm a BIG fan of this one as it gives exposure to a number of different players on the tour.
This year has seen the field raised to 64 which will give alot of players a chance.
looking at the draw there's some great opportunities for some players in the latter half of the top 32 to get to the Quarter finals and i think we are going to see a few upsets along the way.
This is a rare event to not feature 3x winner Phil Taylor, so that is one of the favorites out.
My prediction with whose going to win would have to again go with the obvious and that's MVG.
The legs format suits him, hes the 'man' at the moment and the defending champion.
There are always threats though:
- Lewis has made the last 2 (albeit losing) finals and on his day has the game to beat anyone. He will desperately want to make amends for that.
- Barney is playing well and the draw could see him go deep (and he has had the beating of MVG before when on form)
- Gary Anderson is getting used to the new glasses, is a past winner and will only get better
- James Wade is playing really well and has made 10 quarter finals or better in the last 6 months.
- Peter Wright is playing in the form of his life and must break his major duct at some point
I definately think we may see a surprise or to in the semi's and final
Take care everyone
Luke
