Default Biggest choke in history?

Currently watching world darts final. First to 7 sets. One guy 6-0 up at break, now 6-4 with underdog leading in 11th set. Adams has just collapsed thus far, he is still favorite but if he loses I think it will be the biggest collapse I've ever seen.

Van de Velde in the 98 or 99 British Open.

Guy held his nerve to win 7-6, amazing stuff.

Van de Velde is a great choice, that was obscene.

Rather the other guy just ran out of steam, if Nixon plays like he did in sets 7-12 he probably goes on to win it.

And yes, JVdV was obscene

I remember Van de Velde so clearly.

My uncle and I watched David Cone throw a perfect game and then Van de Velde's choke and the entire time we were worried that they would find JFK jr's missing plane and cut away to that.
