Phil Taylor has admitted that he was left feeling "gutted" following his dramatic 6-6 draw against Peter Wright in the Darts Premier League.
The six-time world champion faced Wright in the knowledge that a victory would be enough to secure his place in the playoffs, and had a dart in the deciding leg to claim victory.
Taylor failed to find the target, however, paving the way for Wright to snatch a draw which sets up a tense showdown in Brighton next week.
"I was gutted, I had my chances and I missed a lot of doubles there," the 53-year-old told Sky Sports News. "But I'm happy to still be in there.
"I'll be trying to win, a draw might get me through, but it's going to be a twitchy, twitchy time next week. There's three of us fighting for two spaces, it's brilliant really."
Elsewhere, Raymond van Barneveld fell to a 7-4 defeat at the hands of fellow Dutchman Michael van Gerwen.
