Phil Taylor's Unpleasant Methods
According to The Sun: Adrian Lewis revealed that Phil Taylor was one of the worst opponents when it came to air pads on the PDC stage. The two-time world champion claims that 'The Power' deliberately tried to unsettle his opponents during matches, even using unpleasant sounds on stage as part of his psychological warfare.
'These dirty tricks were relentless'
Such a strategy from Taylor drew mixed reactions among players and fans. Not all players were prepared to tolerate the psychological game from their opponent. This highlights the importance of having not only technical skills but also a strong psychological reserve during competitions at the highest level.
