  • seven in the first round to eleven to the second round and the semi-finals ===>>> seven in the first round to eleven from the second round to the semi-finals

Round 1[edit]

  • General question: Are the individual "targets" on the board actually called rings? I thought the ring was the whole double ring or the whole treble ring. (e.g. Should it be "double 18 ring" or just "double 18"?)
  • General comment: I would suggest labelling all of the seeds as "world number __" and leaving the rankings out for all of the remaining unseeded players. As of now, I don't see a pattern with who is labelled with a ranking and who is not.
  • the director of the world championship Tommy Cox ===>>> the director of the world championship Tommy Cox,
  • in which 32 players ===>>> in which all 32 players

Round 2[edit]

  • Warriner,[29] who was the highest ranked player to lose in the tournament. ===>>> Warriner,[29] who was the first player ranked in the top ten to lose in the tournament. (Of course he was the highest-ranked player to lose if he is number one and he lost.)
  • with both players tying the score four times in the first eight sets ===>>> after neither player led by more than a se t until the end of the match. (I don't think "both players tying the score four times" is clear.)
  • Baxter took more than one hour ===>>> Baxter only took a little more than one hour (It's supposed to be a short amount of time, right?)
  • Baxter's higher finishing average won him six consecutive sets ===>>> Baxter's higher finishing average won him six consecutive legs in the middle of the match (legs, not sets)
  • Taylor averaged 111.21 points of a three-dart average ===>>> Taylor averaged 111.21 points OR Taylor had a three-dart average of 111.21 points
  • After both players began at a slow pace with Harrington compiling high scores (add "and missing checkouts") and Priestley making checkouts (add "without high scores")
  • after Harrington failed to complete a 169 checkout. <<<=== I'd leave this out. It doesn't seem important. (Also, there is no such thing as a 169 checkout...)

Quarterfinals[edit]

  • between 3 January 2002 ===>>> on 3 January 2002
  • between Lloyd and the pre-game favourite Burnett. ===>>> between Lloyd and Burnett. Although Burnett was heavily favoured to win,
  • Both players shared the first three sets ===>>> Both players shared the first four sets

Semifinals[edit]

  • after it went to a fifth leg ===>> after the final set went to a fifth leg
  • Taylor then took sets five and six for a 6–1 win when one of his darts landed inside the outer double 20 ring. ===>>> Taylor then took sets five and six for a 6–0 win, only losing one leg in each of the final two sets. (The finishing dart isn't important if it's not close or a big checkout.)

Final[edit]

  • This was Taylor's eleventh world final ===>>> This was Taylor's eleventh world championship final
  • and was runner-up ===>>> , having finished runner-up
  • Manley win its first leg ===>>> Manley win his first leg
