He said, “Make sure you get enough rest. I still take a mattress topper with me everywhere I go because some hotel beds are like sleeping in the middle of the road.
“Your arrows won’t go where you want them to go if your eyes are watery after a restless night.”
Taylor won 16 World Darts Championships between 1990 and 2023 before retiring in 2018.
He returned to darts on the PDC Seniors Tour in 2022 at the Senior World Darts Championships, losing in the quarter-finals to Kevin Painter.
