WDF World Cup Men Teams 1995
With a record number of entries of 40 men's teams the tenth WDF World Cup started in the Swiss city of Basel. With this fantastic number of entrees WDF Chairman Peter McMenamin and SDA President Felix Degen could already speak of a great success before the first dart was thrown. Not only the quantity was present also the quality continued to rise. Apparently there are no "weak countries" anymore in the darts world.
In the team event Wales made it to the semi-finals, they defeated Belgium in the quarterfinals 9-6. The surprising Danes reached the last four after they eliminated the Scots. The semi-final line-up was completed by Australia and of course the favourites from England.
In the first semi-final between Wales (Martin Phillips, Eric Burden, Sean Palfrey and Richie Burnett) and Denmark (Per Skau Frede Johansen, Stig Jorgensen and Torben Christensen) the Welsh encountered little resistance from the Scandinavians and won 9-3. England (Martin Adams, Andy Fordham, Ronnie Baxter and Steve Beaton) also nudged easily to the final, winning 9-1 over the Australians (Russell Stewart, Wayne Weening, Graham Hunt and Darren Webster). Stewart was the only Australian who took a leg against Fordham.
The final was matched evenly until 2-2, but then the English took a 8-2 lead. Wales could postpone defeat by Palfrey beating Beaton and Burden beating Baxter, but then Beaton grabbed took the ninth point against Burnett in 18 darts. The team event was thus a prey for England.
