Super Taylor stuns Stompe

Phil Taylor produced a quarter-final masterclass to send Co Stompe crashing out of the PDC World Championship at Alexandra Palace.

The 13-time champion was at his phenomenal best to thump the Dutchman 5-0, Stompe - who had beaten Taylor in Germany last month - picking up just three legs as 'The Power' stormed into the last four.

Taylor, who hit five 180s in the match, cruised through the first set courtesy of some very heavy scoring, but Stompe battled back in the second, forcing him to a fifth leg which he won after nailing double top.

Taylor's average of over 108 was simply irresistable and although the recent BDO defector was not playing at all badly there was little he could do to stop the former champion.

It was business as usual in the third as Taylor coasted it 3-0, bombarding the treble 20 time and again while rarely missing his doubles, leaving Stompe grinning widely at the absurdity of Taylor's brilliance.
