World Matchplay - 20-28 July

[kevshat]

The second biggest tournament of the season comes along next week with the World Matchplay in Blackpool. This is always a fabulous tournament and this year should be the best one yet. It is all on Sky as usual. Draw, format and schedule can all be found here: http://www.pdc.tv/world-matchplay/article/dmbllew4ucl613ccn0xlzyzmg/title/betvictor-world-matchplay-drawschedule

Re: World Matchplay - 20-28 July Tournament preview: 1pt ew R.Thornton to win World Matchplay 28/1 Bet365 (1/2 1-2) Robert Thornton went well in the European Championship, beating Barneveld in a second round classic before going down narrowly in the quarter finals to Ronny Huybrechts. That Barneveld win showed Thornton can go toe to toe with the best though and with this draw likely to cut up at some point he should go well here. The key thing is he won’t face Lewis until the quarter finals which is important. Thornton is very consistent these days. He’s won two tournaments in 2013 and been to the quarter finals and beyond in eight more. He looks a big price at 28/1 to do some damage this week.
