He’s got a tough matchup coming up against Jermaine Wattimena.What do you think will decide that clash?
Dave: That’s a fascinating matchup. Wattimena is a dangerous opponent, known for his aggressive style. It’ll boil down to who handles the pressure better. if Price can stay consistent and minimize his mistakes, I give him the edge.
And we can’t forget Price’s Welsh teammate, Josh Cullen. What are your expectations for him?
Dave: Cullen has been steadily improving, and he’s proved he can compete at this level. He’s got a tough draw, but if he can bring his A-game, don’t rule him out for a surprise run.
Do you think we could see a Welsh showdown in the later rounds?
Dave: That would be incredible for Welsh darts fans! It’s certainly a possibility, but they’ll need to navigate some tough matches to make that happen.
