PDC World Cup

Scotland’s duo Peter Wright and John Henderson win the 2021 Cazoo World Cup.

Monday 06 Sep 2021

Article by ‐ PDPA

Scotland secured World Cup glory with a sensational 3-1 defeat of Austria in Sunday’s final in Jena.

 

Wright had linked up with Gary Anderson to win the World Cup two years ago, and this time helped ensure the greatest day of Henderson’s career as they scooped the £70,000 top prize. They had seen off China and Poland to win through to Sunday’s final stages, and overcame two former champions to continue their title bid.

They firstly came from one point behind to win their quarter-final against the Netherlands in a dramatic sudden-death leg of their Doubles decider against Michael van Gerwen and Dirk van Duijvenbode. They then ended Wales’ title defence in a brilliant semi-final which also went to a sudden-death leg in their Doubles contest.

Austria, meanwhile, survived three missed match darts from Northern Ireland’s Brendan Dolan in a sudden-death leg in their quarter-final and then defeated England 2-0 to reach their first World Cup final.

Suljovic got Austria off to a flying start in the final by defeating Henderson 4-1 – hitting a 160 finish along the way – only for Wright to overcome Rodriguez by the same scoreline to level. A dramatic Doubles tie saw Austria open up a 3-0 lead, only to miss five match darts as Scotland pulled back level.

Suljovic then missed two darts at tops in the deciding leg as Henderson held his nerve on double ten to put Scotland 2-1 up and one tie away from victory. That came in the next Singles clash, as Wright opened up a 2-0 lead over Suljovic and also took out 156 before holding off his rival’s fightback to finish double 16 and seal glory for the Scots.

The victory was the biggest of Henderson’s career and also secures him a spot in November’s Cazoo Grand Slam of Darts. Wright had won the World Matchplay in July and Sunday’s success in Jena ensured back-to-back TV titles and his second World Cup success.

The Austrian duo have also put themselves in provisional qualifying places for the Grand Slam of Darts after they enjoyed their country’s best-ever World Cup campaign. For Suljovic, the weekend in Jena was a successful return to the big stage after missing the World Matchplay through illness.
