Thibault Tricole’s “best match”

During the first round of Players Championship Finalshe is opposed to the Welsh Gerwyn Priceworld number ten, world champion in 2021. A hell of a challenge for the current 83^e world, just entered the PDC circuit.

But this year, the Morbihannais is improving from competition to competition. He learns, and shows, little by little, that he has his place in the world circuit. In Minehead, on the southwest coast of England, he had his “best match with an average of 95 points” as he declared after his victory (6-4).

Already qualified for the world championships

In the next round, he will face the Swede Jeffrey DeGraaf86^e world, who has just triumphed over Briton Ryan Searle, 19^e global. This tournament is a great foretaste of a new participation in the world championships in the warm atmosphere of Alexandra Palace in London, from December 15.

As a reminder, last year, he became the first Frenchman to qualify and complete a round. But before trying to repeat this performance, it’s time for the second round of the Players Championship Finals this Saturday, November 23, 2024, at 2:45 p.m.
