DARYL GURNEY BECAME the first seed to be knocked out of the World Darts Championship after a straight sets defeat against Scotland’s Alan Soutar this afternoon.
The Northern Irishman looked to be in control of what turned out to be the final leg, hitting a 180 to move towards his third break in this set.
He’d left himself tops to put the pressure on Soutar’s 160 – but Soutar landed two T20s and a D20 for an impressive finish.
The 24th seed got seven maximums and posted a 91.25 average, but was beaten in final-leg deciders in all three sets.
