Michael van Gerwen survived a massive scare against
Gerwyn Price but is still through to a clash with Raymond van Barneveld, a game we seem to get year on year in the World Championships and they will do battle again in the Quarter-Finals.
'Mighty Mike' went 2-0 up but Gerwyn threw some sublime darts to get it back to 2-2 against the World Number 1 but spurned an opportunity to go 3-2 up which could have handed the Welshman the match and a massive shock but van Gerwen typically hit 62 and then went onto win.
Through the statistics you could tell van Gerwen wasn't at his best as he hit a 100.5 average but still hit twelve 180's and now will have to put it right against the dutch legend who he faces next.
