Summary
Live Darts: World Matchplay 7pm, Sky Sports 1 The Empress Ballroom at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool hosts the second most prestigious PDC event of the year. Phil Taylor (pictured) is the defending champion, and 'The Power' was back to his dominant best in 2008 after a couple of lacklustre seasons. Taylor outplayed James Wade in the final, beating his fellow Englishman 18-9 to take his ninth World Matchplay title. Subscribers to Sky's HD package should note that this will be the first time the tournament has been broadcast in high definition. Does that mean that viewers will have the opportunity to enjoy the sight of rowdy fans spilling their beer in crystal clarity, just as much as they can see every bead of sweat on the players' tense brows?
