Phil Taylor will add another World Darts Trophy to his mantle after sending Martin “Wolfie” Adams home with a second place finish. Adams played professional level darts, but as is often the case Taylor gave a glimpse of darts on a higher level still. Averaging 34.08 per dart, Taylor never let Adams get closer than being 4-2 down.

Taylor won the opening set without a reply from Martin, and would have been 2-0 ahead, but narrowly missed hitting a bullseye on a 127 finish, and Adams took advantage by taking the set.

The third set went to Taylor, without a reply from Adams, and a missed double by Adams cost him the fourth set with Taylor now at 3-1.

The fifth set saw Taylor move up with a 4-1 lead, but Adams battled back and won the sixth set making the game 4-2.

The seventh set went 3-0 in Taylors favor, and the final set and victory also went to Taylor.

Phil will take home 45,000 Euro (30500 Pounds).

Phil Taylor brushed past Ronnie Baxter 6-0 in an awesome display of darts, averaging just under 108 in the first semi final.

Martin Adams seemed to have the edge after going up 2-0 against young hotshot Michael van Gerwen, but the dutchman battled back bringing the score to 4-4. Adams stood his broud and showed some very steady scoring to finish the game at 6-4. Van Gerwen has been very impressive in not only this tourney but also in other tournament matches as of late in his career, and a final round against Phil Taylor would have been cracking, but a Martin/Taylor matchup will be interesting as well.
