Taylor chases 11th world title

Darts ace Phil Taylor will be chasing his 11th world title and a very special trophy when the Ladbrokes.com World Championship gets underway at the Circus Tavern, Purfleet, today.

"The Power" has swept all before him during 2002, adding the World Matchplay, Las Vegas Desert Classic and World Grand Prix to the world title he won 12 months ago with a convincing victory over Peter Manley in the final.
