The “darts results masters” is the PDC World Darts Championship. The tournament has been set up with a quarter final stage and Michael Smith and Gerwyn Price have been set up to play each other in the first round of that stage.
In the quarter-finals, Gerwyn Price will play Michael Smith.
At the PDC World Darts Championship, champion Gerwyn Price will face Michael Smith in the quarter-finals.
Price of Wales defeated Dutch 17th seed Dirk van Duijvenbode 4-1.
After asking for the competition to be postponed because to Covid-19 withdrawals, Price claimed he “spoke a little bit too soon.”
Eighth seed Jonny Clayton was upset 4-3 by Smith in a thriller that went to a tie-break. It might have been an all-Welsh quarter-final.
Clayton, 47, took the opening two sets of the match, but Smith, 31, of England, fought back to take the next three.
Clayton, the Premier League champion, broke Smith’s throw in the sixth leg with a 161 bullseye checkout, then broke again with a 105 finish to tie the match at 3-3 and send it to a decisive leg.
It was 4-4 in legs in the final set when ninth seed Smith broke Clayton’s throw and held his composure to win the match in the 10th leg.
Earlier in the evening, two-time global champion Gary Anderson of Scotland advanced to the fourth round after overcoming a 3-0 deficit to defeat England’s Ian White 4-3 and set up a clash with 2018 winner Rob Cross.
‘It’s been a lot of effort to get these events going.’
Following three-time champion Michael van Gerwen and fellow Dutch player Vincent van der Voort, Price called for the event to be postponed when David Chisnall became the third player to quit after testing positive for Covid-19.
“I think I talked a little too soon. It takes a lot of effort to organize these events. The PDC, as well as everyone else involved, does an outstanding job “Price beat Van Duijvenbode four times in a row, winning 12 legs in a row and four sets in a row.
“It has to be completed.” I’d agree if it were to be postponed. I believe that this should continue since it takes a lot of effort to get these competitions started.

“All I could think of was how awful I felt for the lads who had gone out.” I understand what you’re going through. Obviously, my exit from the Premier League, particularly in this event, for which you prepare all year.
“This is the major event, and Michael [van Gerwen] is defending a £200,000 ranking point victory. It’s heartbreaking to watch the lads go. It’s a challenging position, but you must do your best to cope with it “the world champion said.
Danny Noppert confirmed on Wednesday that he had also tested positive for Covid-19. On Tuesday, the Dutchman was defeated by England’s Ryan Searle and became the tournament’s sixth player to test positive.
Soutar and Rydz make strides forward.
Two third-round matches were played in London’s Alexandra Palace on Wednesday afternoon, with Jose de Sousa facing Alan Soutar and Nathan Aspinall facing Callan Rydz.

And the Scot defeated Portugal’s world number seven, 4-3, with a 136 checkout to secure the win.
Rydz was in fine form as he dominated 10th seed Aspinall his route to a 4-0 victory, and the 23-year-old has yet to lose a set in this year’s event.
