Michael Smith reveals what the most distracting costume was when playing at The Ally Pally in The PDC World Championship.
Michael Smith wants no distractions on his return to Alexandra Palace - after one fan's costume became the funniest thing he's ever seen.Smith became only the second player in history to hit a nine-darter in a PDC World Championship final in his 7-4 win overHowever, Smith was almost undone by an unlikely source during the opening match of his eventual Ally Pally tournament triumph.
During an exclusive interview with talkSPORT.com, Smith has incredibly revealed he had been finding it hard to focus on a leg. "For some reason at the Ally Pally, they like to dress up properly and just to see the Jamaican bobsleigh team running up and down all the aisles and the fans, it just made me giggle and it was hard to focus then on that leg just thinking about them running behind me."Fortunately for Smith, he stayed on course and ultimately prevailed in the final a month later but has since struggled to hit those heights.
He has also decked out the walls with images of him kissing the Sid Waddell Trophy and the score of his Ally Pally win over Mighty Mike.
