You can’t beat a bit of Bully...

IT’S time for an odyssey into the heart of dartness as we gear up for the PDC World Championship. Michael van Gerwen at odds against (13/8, Paddy

Power) is sorely tempting but he hasn’t been at his imperious best this year. Last year’s winner Rob Cross is available at 25/1

(Black Type) but lightning won’t strike twice. Instead, go for a bit of Bully Boy. MICHAEL SMITH is darts’ nearly man, thwarted time and time again on the big stage. But he can finally make a breakthrough to take the PDC title at 16/1

(Sky Bet). He is also a snip at 11/4 with the same firm to win the THIRD QUARTER of the draw.
