'Jackpot' joy at Purfleet

Adrian Lewis showed he has the fighting qualities to go with his outstanding talent when digging deep to knock fourth seed Roland Scholten out of the Ladbrokes.com World Championship.

Phil Taylor’s protege battled back from 2-0 down to win the third-round match 4-3 and stay on course for a possible clash with his mentor in the final at Purfleet’s Circus Tavern next Monday.
