These include PDC players Diogo Portela, Cody Harris and Jamie Caven. Portela in particular has been impressive seeing off Jim Williams.
Also the likes of recent Dutch Open finalist Ryan Hogarth, Ross Montgomery; as well as former champions in Tony O’Shea and Wesley Harms are still involved.
In terms of defending champion Richard Veenstra; he went out early doors in the Last 128.
Still the tournament is going to likely produce a thrilling conclusion and potentially a new winner.
