- Balance
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always wear flat shoes for darts because a heel can put me off balance. I press the side of my shoe against the oche, not the toe. That puts my throwing arm a few inches closer to the board. Not everybody is the same but it works for me.
- Numbers
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm brilliant at working out numbers up to 180 but if you ask me to split a restaurant bill I'm rubbish.
- Dart

- Nov 07, 2020

- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Because we're playing tournaments week in and week out I'd think to myself, 'What's the point in practising?' You have no down time to yourself and you're looking for some to spend with your family and friends. But I've now realised that with the game so cut-throat and standards going up every week, it doesn't work.
- Hours

You have to put in the extra hours away from the tournament. There's no other option.
