Gerwyn Price started off proceedings in the European Championship with a win. He defeated Ronny Huybrechts, the home hero 6-5. He averaged 96.7, hit three 180's and 75% on the doubles and will face either Kim Huybrechts or Mensur Suljovic in Round 2.
Alan Norris was the second man through defeating Mervyn King 6-4. The player known as 'Chuck' came from behind winning 3 on the spin to reach the second round. Norris hasn't been in the best form this year but did it when it matters to book his place in the next round.
