World Cup Darts Chinese Taipei Players

Most darts pub players around the globe will be watching the World Cup Darts and thinking ‘I’m probably better than some of these players’. Okay, not the big-gun pairings of England’s Luke Littler and Luke Humphries – but we are talking about the lesser-known darts nations – like India and the World Cup Darts Chinese Taipei teams. 

This thinking, however, was backed up when exactly these two sides – India and Chinese Taipei – met in the competition which led to a hilarious mix-up between the Taipei darts players when trying to work out a checkout.

World Cup Darts Chinese Taipei Players In ‘Checkout Calamity’

The World Cup of Darts is being staged this week in Frankfurt, Germany – with the final on Sunday 15th June – and 40 nations in action.

Defending champions Luke Littler and Luke Humphries are the big favourites with the best betting sites in the UK to successfully defend their crown.

However, one nation that will be huge odds to get their hands on the World Cup Darts prize money is the Chinese Taipei duo.

Why? Well, based on a hilarious Chinese Taipei World Cup darts clip that’s been released it seems one of their players doesn’t know how to checkout from just 38 – to see off India in the leg.

Instead of just pumping (or trying to pump) the ‘double 19’ to get them the checkout, the Chinese Taipei player Pupo Teng-Lieh seemingly thought the leg had already been won by his teammate An-Sheng Lu (watch below).

So, instead of trying to hit the double 19 for the 38 checkout, Teng-Lieh started going for the treble 20 – which, of course, led to him eventually busting leaving a fuming Sheng-Lu having a ‘war of words’ with his partner.

India, who didn’t seem much better, capitalised to win the leg – but went onto lose the overall match despite yet another Chinese Taipei miscount later in the match.
