Stephen Bunting overloaded with hate messages after defeat by Danny Noppert at World Grand Prix: ‘Sad to see’

Stephen Bunting crashed in the eighth finals of the World Grand Prix on Wednesday. The Bullet – number four in the world – surprisingly lost to Danny Noppert 3-1. The usually popular Bunting did not play an under-par match, but his Dutch opponent scored better and finished coolly when he had to. Bunting had to take the punishment verbally on social media afterwards.
