That means as a result, 4 ranking winners this year remain in the reckoning. They include Mickey Mansell who saw off Luke Woodhouse and he will now have an all Northern Irish clash with Brendan Dolan.
The big story of the round though was Gary Anderson being dumped out by Ricky Evans who hit 4 legs on the spin to defeat the winner of yesterday’s Players Championship event.
This means that Peter Wright and Michael Smith are the highest remaining seeds in MK.
