Tony Comerford continues to lead the field in the new thisisdarts.co.uk Individual League on 33 points after ten fixtures. However, he suffered something of a setback in his game with Ross Macken as he finished on the wrong side of a 2-1 result. Second placed Adam Thomas had a 2-1 win over Sean O’Donnell and is one of four players with 29 points, third in the table Darren Whitehouse having one game in hand on the leading duo, but all of the top three players need to keep a close eye on fourth placed Ian McFarlane who has only played seven games and has three in hand on the top two and two on Whitehouse.
Two maximums were recorded in week four and they were supplied by Ian McFarlane and Tony Comerford.
