Jim Williams Replaces Gerwyn Price in Wales’ BetVictor World Cup Darts Team: Can They Still Win?

Gerwyn Price has withdrawn from the 2024 BetVictor World Cup of Darts due to health issues. As a result, Jim Williams will be replacing him in the Wales team for the event this weekend. This is a significant blow to the Welsh team as Price and Jonny Clayton had previously won the World Cup together.

Despite his disappointment at having to miss out on the tournament, Price expressed his well wishes for his teammates, hoping that they can bring back the title once again. Williams, who is the next highest-ranked Welsh player on the PDC Order of Merit, will be making his World Cup debut this weekend in Frankfurt.

With the draw already made for the group stage of the World Cup of Darts, Wales will retain their status as the second seeds. This means that they will enter the event in the second round on Saturday at the Eissporthalle. The Wales team will be looking to continue their success in the Doubles event and aim for another victory in this prestigious tournament.

The absence of Price from the Wales team will undoubtedly make it more challenging for them to win another title. However, with Clayton by his side, Williams has proven himself to be a formidable force in darts competition. He has been climbing up the rankings and is ready to take on any challenge that comes his way.

In conclusion, while it’s unfortunate that Gerwyn Price won’t be able to compete in this year’s BetVictor World Cup of Darts due to health issues, Jim Williams is an excellent replacement who has been waiting for his chance to shine on a global stage. We wish both Price and Williams all the best for their respective health concerns and hope that Wales can bring home another title this weekend.
