Power Surge In Killarney
Phil "The Power" Taylor completed the double over the weekend of October 16th to 18th, at the Killarney Darts Festival held in the INEC, with 56 PDC Pros over for the weekend of darts. On Saturday, he came through an entry of 333 players to defeat Wayne "The Wanderer" Jones 6-1 in the final of the Gleneagle Irish Masters. On Sunday, he came through an entry of 161 players to defeat Paul Nicholson 6-0 in the final of the John McEvoy Gold Dart Classic. The Power was in imperious form, dropping only 4 legs in 7 matches on Sunday.
Mick Egan got the draw that everyone wanted and nobody wanted, when he drew the 14 time world champion in the first round on Sunday. Egan put in a good effort, but went down 6-0, although he had chances to win 2 legs, and was close enough in a few others.

The Power lived up to his name on Sunday, averaging 115 in his second match against Pak O'Donovan (6-0), and then defeating Wayne Mardle (6-1), Michael van Gerwen (6-0), Andy Hamilton (6-1) and Wayne Jones (6-2), before taking out Paul Nicholson 6-0 in the final.

It was an unbelievable experience for Egan, playing Taylor in competition, and being up close to the Phil Taylor circus, it was easy to see why The Power is head and shoulders above everybody else.
