Glen Durrant is through after surviving a brilliant fightback from Scott Baker in a game many said was the best of the tournament.
Durrant spoke afterwards and admitted that he was a beaten man at 3-3 so he doesn’t know how he squeezed through.
‘I was a beaten man at 3-3, he’s such a rhythm player and things were affecting me that I need to address and that was purely my fault. I just want to make it clear nothing to do with Scott’s fans, they were absolutely terrific,’ said Durrant.
‘There’s just something about a little bit of experience that I’ve been there before, I certainly wasn’t feeling great. I think Lady Luck was on my side.’
‘I’ve got to kick on, the beauty of it now is that we play everyday. I’ve had a lot of waiting around and watching others, now I’m straight back on tomorrow and that’ll take some beating that game.’

- 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
