I know this is a gag etc, but it’s already true of about 5 of the finals on the graph. Think the gap between winner and runner up will just increase with Littler beating opponents though. The main difference with the gap previously is that Taylor was miles better than everyone.

Absolute wrongun. Convicted sex offender and the rumours about him are very grim
Do they win the F1 car along with the trophy?
Personal life
Taylor’s father, Douglas, died from bowel cancer in 1997, aged 57. His mother, Elizabeth, died from a lung condition in 2015, aged 74.[259] Taylor married Yvonne in 1988; the couple separated in 2011 and divorced in 2016.[260][261] They have four children together, three daughters and a son.[261] In 2015, their two youngest daughters were reported to be estranged from Taylor and living on state benefits following the breakdown of their parents’ marriage. One daughter, then aged 26, was reported to be unemployed and living in a hostel in Stoke-on-Trent that was also used by prostitutes and drug addicts. Their youngest daughter, then aged 22, was reported to be pregnant with her fourth child and living in a council house. Both daughters claimed that Taylor, while continuing to support his two oldest children financially, had refused their requests for assistance.[262] During divorce hearings in 2016, Taylor’s net worth was estimated at £3.4 million.[261]
Taylor’s 2003 autobiography, The Power, was ghostwritten by the late Sky TV darts commentator Sid Waddell.[263] He was inducted into the Stoke-on-Trent Hall of Fame when it was opened in January 2011.[264] He is a supporter of Port Vale F.C.[265]
Indecent assault conviction
On 10 October 1999, after an exhibition match at a hotel in Leslie, Fife, Taylor offered two intoxicated 23-year-old women a lift home in his campervan, driven by a hired driver. Both women subsequently accused him of indecent assault. He denied the charges, but the matter became public knowledge in March 2001 after he was found guilty in Dunfermline Sheriff Court. One of the women testified that Taylor had tried to kiss her and unzip her trousers, before unhooking her bra and touching her breasts. The second woman testified that Taylor had put his hands down her shirt and touched her breasts beneath her bra. The women clarified that they had both verbally and physically objected to being touched.[266] At the sentencing in May 2001, the Sheriff commented that the offences were not serious enough to merit a custodial sentence, but she fined Taylor £2,000.[267]
As a result of his conviction, Taylor’s Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) nomination from the 2001 New Year Honours was annulled before he was awarded it.[268][269] Both of Taylor’s youngest daughters later claimed that they had been bullied at school over the incident. His youngest daughter claimed that this bullying had resulted in her leaving school without any academic qualifications.[262]
Taken from wiki. Absolute abhorrent human.
Man Lok Leung!
how much showboating was Littler doing to average under 90 today
He didn’t hit a 180 in the entire match. The crowd was completely flat all evening, he just did enough to beat a Paul Lim who didn’t pull up any trees either.
that’s surely the first time he’s played a televised match without a 180!
The commentators were checking record books.
In the 9th leg of MvG - Bunting, still waiting for the 1st hold of throw
