Thought I'd start one, given the first match is less than 5 hours away.

A glance at the draw shows that Phil Taylor is in the easier half and should progress to the final. The bottom half is intriguing with Michael Van Gerwen, Gary Anderson, Barney, Wade, Lewis and Chisnall all featuring.

My Q/F prediction is Taylor vs. Thornton, Kim Huybrechts vs. Whitlock, Michael Van Gerwen vs. Raymond Van Barneveld and Wade vs. Lewis. For me, it's a Taylor vs MVG Final and this promises to be a classic.

The stand-out first round matches are Kim Huybrechts vs Ronnie Huybrechts, Dave Chisnall vs John Henderson, Jamie Caven vs. Jelle Klaasen, Gary Anderson vs. Mark Dudbridge.

John Part through but a mixed bag form-wise. 10+ 180s in that first match so the standard was good.

If he's going to wear that gear he should sign a sponsorship deal with Skittles.

They should take away the seedings and have an entirely open draw, FA Cup style...it would liven up these early rounds no end.

Peter Wright looking good there, 151 checkout for a 3-0 win.

Those two missed darts at tops could well be the turning point.

Taylor wins 3-1 but he was pushed hard. On that evidence get your money on MvG.

Terry Jenkins bags a 9-darter then bows out to Per Laursen in a thriller!

Two 9 darters in one day and both players ending up losing, still, £15k each can't be sniffed at, well done Terry Jenkins & Kyle Anderson!
