#368: Connor Scutt, Thomas Banks, ProTour Review, A Look Ahead To The Busy End Of The Season

Weekly Dartscast

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode after the latest Players Championship double header. The boys start the show by discussing the major title prospects of Damon Heta and Chris Dobey, last week's two Players Championship title winners in Milton Keynes last week, before picking out who they think will be the next first-time winners in the PDC senior ranks. Alex and Burton also look ahead to the business end of the season and discuss what they're most looking forward to in the rest of 2024 and tackle your questions in the mailbag. Connor Scutt (15:38) stops by to look back on a busy last few months on the oche. 'The Sniper' looks back on winning the British Pentathlon, opening his PDC title account on the Challenge Tour, taking a £50 lead at the top of the Challenge Tour heading into the final weekend, what he puts his recent success down to and answers the question: if he has to choose is it Ally Pally or Lakeside at the end of the year?

Thomas Banks (40:34) joins us on the show for the first time to talk through his darts career so far. The teenager chats about how he first got into the game, bursting onto the scene as a Riley's qualifier at the UK Open last year at the age of 16, qualifying for Champions Week at the MODUS Super Series, and his future goals as a player.
