Hamilton eases past Herewini, Suzuki comes from set down to defeat O'Brien
BDOMonday, 06 January 2020 at 21:32
The first two matches on a bumper night of action at the 2020 BDO World Championship are complete with Andy Hamilton and Mikuru Suzuki successfully through.
Hamilton had a slow start in his match against Darren Herewini losing the first set as neither player could find their rhythm in the early going but he produced a whitewash set from there and barely looked troubled from there.
He claimed a 3-1 win to defeat the impressive Kiwi and move through to the third round with a 150 checkout and four 180's en route.
Suzuki also had to come from a set down as her title defence begins at a new venue for the second year running for the Japanese ace and she edged past Maria O'Brien 2-1.
The first set did not go to plan by any means for Suzuki as O'Brien claimed it in a whitewash to potentially head towards an early shock victory.
Despite that, Suzuki eased through the next set to set up a decider in the very short format. From there she moved through to the Quarter-Finals surviving what she hopes is her only scare.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
