Darts supremo Phil 'The Power' Taylor will have to overcome an obstacle that no other dart player in the history of the game have ever encountered.The PDC (Professional Darts Council), have held an exclusive meeting and decided that the arrow master from Stoke On Trent who wins most tournaments across the globe, that from next season 2011-2012 the maestro will start on 601 and his opponents starting on the traditional 501.
A spokesman for the PDC Ivan Harrow said after the meeting that this will give every other dart player a chance to be a winner.
However Taylors management team are up in arms about this decision, Taylors spokesman Simon Hockey said this is an insult to Phil and the game in general, its not fair that Phil's superb talent should be handicapped. In fact, his fellow professionals should up there game to Phil's standards.
The multi millionaire Taylor commented last night from his mansion in the Potteries, this sort of thing doesn't really bother me, if they want i'll only throw two darts, nothing fazes me, when i am on the oche i am totally focused on beating my opponent, 601, two darts bring them on.
Darts legend Eric Bristow commented, if the PDC think this will stop Taylor, i'll pick up my darts tomorrow and get some practise in, it would be nice to win something again.
