Vladyslav Omelchenko membuat sejarah dengan menjadi orang Ukraina pertama yang tampil di Kejuaraan Dunia PDC dan dia merayakannya dengan melakukan checkout 143 yang spektakuler dalam kekalahan 3-0 dari Luke Woodhouse.
Vladyslav Omelchenko dari Ukraina berharap debutnya yang bersejarah Kejuaraan Dart Dunia Cazoo di Istana Alexandra dapat menginspirasi gelombang baru pemain untuk terjun ke olahraga di negaranya yang dilanda perang.
Omelchenko datang melalui kualifikasi dua hari di Kyiv pada bulan Oktober untuk menjadi orang Ukraina pertama dalam sejarah yang lolos ke Kejuaraan Dart Dunia, dengan pemain berusia 47 tahun itu harus mempersiapkan turnamen dalam kondisi terik karena perang yang sedang berlangsung di rumahnya. negara asal.
Penonton yang memadati memberi Omelchenko tepuk tangan meriah saat ia naik ke panggung untuk pertandingan putaran pertama melawan Luke Woodhouse, dengan petenis Ukraina itu menunjukkan penampilan yang mengesankan meski kalah straight set.
Berbicara melalui seorang juru bahasa, Omelchenko memberi tahu PDC: “Ini pasti akan memberikan dorongan untuk panah di Ukraina. Dart cukup populer di Ukraina sebelum perang, tetapi karena itu, banyak orang telah pergi dan hampir tidak ada permainan.
“Di masa depan, setelah kami membebaskan Ukraina lagi, itu akan memberikan dorongan besar untuk anak panah dan mudah-mudahan bisa lebih populer daripada sebelumnya.”
Omelchenko membukukan rata-rata 80,51 yang solid dan memenangkan tiga pertandingan melawan lawannya dari Inggris, dengan checkout 143 yang maksimal dan menakjubkan di antara sorotannya dalam kekalahan 3-0.
“Sangat sulit bagi saya untuk beradaptasi pada awalnya, karena ini adalah pertama kalinya saya bermain secara internasional di panggung yang begitu besar dan dengan penonton yang begitu banyak,” tambah Omelchenko.
“Sangat sulit di set pertama untuk masuk ke dalam permainan tetapi menjadi lebih mudah dan saya mulai merasakan permainan saya dan merasa lebih baik. Saya tidak melihat semua dukungan dari penonton tetapi saya sangat senang karenanya.”
Penampilan Omelchenko berarti “lebih dari anak panah”
Woodhouse akan menghadapi Gerywn Price peringkat satu dunia di babak berikutnya setelah melakukan penyelesaian tiga ton lebih dalam perjalanannya untuk mengalahkan Omelchenko, dengan pemain berusia 34 tahun itu mengakui bahwa lawannya dari Ukraina memberinya ujian yang sulit.
Luke Woodhouse tepat sasaran untuk mengambil 119 saat ia terus mendominasi melawan Vladyslav Omelchenko.
“Dia [Omelchenko] sedikit dari jumlah yang tidak diketahui jadi sedikit lebih sulit dari biasanya,” kata Woodhouse setelah kemenangannya. “Agar dia datang ke sini setelah apa yang dia alami – saya telah mendengar laporan bahwa dia telah berlatih dan dia tidak punya listrik.
“Saya memberi penghormatan kepadanya – untuk datang ke sini dan bermain di Kejuaraan Dunia ini, itu benar-benar brilian. Itu cukup sulit, tapi jelas tidak sesulit yang dialami negaranya.”
Luke Woodhouse menyelesaikan 108 untuk naik dua set melawan Vladyslav Omelchenko dalam pertemuan putaran pertama mereka.
Omelchenko menerima sambutan hangat saat dia keluar dari panggung setelah kekalahannya, dengan Mark Webster dari Sky Sports – semifinalis dua kali di Istana Alexandra – berharap untuk melihatnya kembali di masa depan.
“Dia [Omelchenko] memberikan penjelasan yang bagus tentang dirinya sendiri,” kata Webster Olahraga Langit. “Ada 180, 143 dan itu bagus untuk memiliki dia bagian dari acara tersebut.
“Dia akan menikmatinya dan mudah-mudahan dia bisa pergi dan kita akan melihatnya kembali, karena saya pikir dia punya sedikit untuk ditawarkan. Penggemarnya sangat mendukung, itu bagus untuk dilihat, dia menikmati dirinya sendiri dan penghargaan untuknya.” dia.
Kerumunan benar-benar memeluknya dan memberinya tepuk tangan meriah dengan walk-on-nya. Itu lebih dari sekadar dart, permainan itu. Lukas [Woodhouse] menangani situasi dengan baik, tapi itu bagus untuk dilihat.”
