How can you not enjoy watching Stephen Bunting play he is a proper player.

[@GusMac6129]

Cannot hit a double to save his life, though.

[@mazizazi8412]

Too slow, takes break every second throw to throw off opponent. Interesting grip amd release tho

[@TDTheTruth]

Because he looks like a slug

[@lean2281]

Guy sucks mate, can’t beat a terrible Michael smith

[@tonsmeijers9711]

He might not be the most talented player, but I like his attitude. May also have to do with preference for the underdog, which he often is.

[@zolem2008]

Nice to see the result spoiled in the title and thumbnail once again. Well played PDC.

[@adamneal8091]

I know it's so annoying

[@Potsie]

@suckit6838 For some areas of the world, KZbin is the only place to find highlights of these matches. I agree with Zolem's sarcasm in that it is pitiful to see how the PDC ruin the enjoyment of their own headline tournament for those who cannot watch live.

[@junkapopo]

It's not spoiled for me, and I assume other people too. I have no idea what's going, I don't know who's who, I don't know who or what makes history. I assume it's the belgian who wins because of "be" in the title? Frankly, I didn't even think about it until I saw you pointing it out, so in a fun way you're the one who spoiled it for me 😅 In any way, I'm still having fun watching this and figuring out what's going on.

[@NumberOneChin]

@@junkapopo The thumbnail is invariably always one of the match's winners, as it was in this case. I think that's what spoils it for some people.

[@wasteoftime2187]

Loving darts this year

[@maltipoo5221]

Although Bunting's scoring was unbelievable, his doubles were far too bad to qualify for semi finals. The real class is to win even playing bad, like Michael Smith did. Congratulations to Bully Boy, but he will need to improve his scoring in semi finals. We all know that he can do that. Match against Cullen proved that.

[@andramcdiarmid443]

Great matches.

[@juniorperavlova]

YOU CAN NOT SPLIT D19 TO STAY IN THE TOURNAMENT! Bunting, you are a professional darts player, you have to take the double on, man!

[@gooders8855]

Splitting was the correct choice, in this instance.

[@xtheamazingax]

That would be nice. I’d love to see Clemens in the semi finals. I said before that he can’t beat Price but now I’m not so sure…

[@BlueHopi144]

go with who ever wins for you

[@waterboy8999]

Good

[@michaelmcbeth3849]

You jinxed him too 🤣🤣

[@jaysmith2858]

As soon as Clayton starts going bellow the T20 or into the 1 and/or 5 bed, he nearly always loses unless his finishing is above 50% and/or his opponent has a stinker. This was a massive missed opportunity for the Ferret.

[@reshiram62223]

I think that if Johnny won the 8th set he must be win the game but he choke. Great match for us.

Vrees ervoor Gerwyn is niet echt op zijn best dus dat kan wel eens een goede partij worden als Clemens weet af te werken. Dobey is wel bezig aan een geweldig toernooi maar MVG zal allicht een niveau te hoog zijn.

[@sannev8407]

Proud Belgian here, whatever happens he's the first Belgian ever in World Cup semi-final. If MVG wins his game and plays van den Bergh,, Dimitri has nothing to lose.

[@xtheamazingax]

World Championship. Just saying.

[@ironknobsteelworks4063]

Shrek will rinse him.

[@profesor6506]

14:55 Dimitri show something else 🥰

[@PolinesianQQQ]

at 3:13, why did Van den Bergh go for the 3 and then double 1, and not 1 and double 2?

[@Uenbg]

Because he only had 2 darts left to throw. That way, if he busts it by throwing 1, he's back to 10, which is better than ending on 2 when you throw a 2 with your last dart when you're on 4. Of course if you don't bust yourself with a 1, like what happened now, you're still stuck on 2 and it doesn't matter. It could also be that some players actually prefer double 1 over double 2, because double 1 is closer to the more usual double 20. You see this more often with players who would also go for double 20 instead of double 16 when they have the option to set up their ending double that way.

[@kennycleynen6444]

How can you not enjoy watching Dimitri Van Den Bergh he throws so nice

[@InsignificantHuman]

He's slow, mumbles to himself, interviews are cringe and his dancing too

[@matt_dobson0614]

stop letting your mind spoil the party for you

[@thecelt4807]

if smith raises his personal belief in himself to that of say MVG or other top mental strong players with his natural effortless throw he could become almost unbeatable ...the physical throw is silky smooth just lacks a a tad of stone balls mentally ...love his throw and wishing him these heights to come ... i just dont think he anywhere near what he can become ...deadly good imo far beyond how good he is now ..

van den Bergh's gamesmanship worked on Johnny with taking an age to approach the oche, horrible to see that behaviour, MVG battered him in the semi despite even worse gamesmanship (cheating). Can't stand players who resort to this, it doesn't make for a good watch.
