WDF World Cup Men Pairs 2001

After Europe, North America, Australia and Africa, the WDF World Cup will also conquer Asia for the first time in 2011. Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia is the setting for the thirteenth edition of this tournament. It will be played from September 26 to 29.

With 27 participating countries in the ladies, 26 in the men and seven in the youth the tournament is slightly less visited than the previous editions, but the tournament is still a resounding success. Thailand makes its debut in 2001 at a WDF World Cup.

The dominance of the England men is broken only once in 2001. That happens in the semi-final of the pairs event. Ulf Ceder & Marko Kantele from Finland beat Martin Adams & Mervyn King 4-2. It will prove to be the only defeat of an Englishman throughout the tournament against someone from another country.

Ceder & Kantele have to settle for silver because in the final the other English pair of Andy Fordham & John Walton are waiting, and they will not be beat. The victory is 4-2 for The Viking and John Boy. The other bronze goes to the other Finnish duo, Marko Pusa & Jarkko Komula.
