Bet of the day: ‘Wolfie’ Adams beats White in Grand Slam of Darts

Despite being 59, he is still certainly not past his peak and is going strong, having had a highly successful season once again. In the BDO this year, he has won the Dutch and Hal Opens, while has also reached the final of the World Championship, Hal Masters and German Open and got to semis in many others.

He may be largely untested against current PDC players, but certainly doesn’t know how to lose often so can take that confidence into his clash with fellow Englishman White.

Adams trumps White with major success

Diamond has never won a major title to date, even in his BDO years prior to 2010, and in his only other appearance at the Grand Slam back in 2011 he failed to progress past the groups.

Wolfie Adams is certainly a cult hero to his fans, with his trademark howl as he walks onto the stage, and has already rattled the stars of the PDC with his presence.

Peter Wright took offence to apparent remarks made by the veteran, with Snakebite biting back, so Adams will no doubt be spurred on by that to show hat he can compete with the best in the game.
