Marshall James
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marshall James is a professional darts player from Wales, whose only high-profile success in the game so far was being runner-up in the 1997 BDO World Championship, in his debut year at the championships.
His run started with victory over William Burksfield in the first round 3 sets to 1. He then beat Andy Fordham, a future world champion himself, in the second round, again by 3-1. Deciding set wins over American Roger Carter and defending champion Steve Beaton sent him into the final, which he lost to Scotland's Les Wallace 6-3.
He only made two more appearances at Lakeside when he was beaten in the first round in 1998 by Richie Burnett and in the second round in 1999 by Steve Duke.
He was a member of the Welsh World Cup darts winning team in 1997. Wales won the Overall World Cup and Team Event in that year. He also teamed up with Martin Phillips, Sean Palfrey and Ritchie Davies as Wales won the 1998 WDF Europe Cup.
