Peter Wright progressed to the UK Open Qualifying 6 semi-finals, despite David Pallett almost achieving perfection in Wigan.
Pallett narrowly missed double 18 for a nine-darter. The Englishman won the leg but not the match, as Snakebite prevailed 6-4 to reach another semi-final. The UK Open champion Rob Cross ended John Goldie's superb run to reach the semi-finals in Wigan. Voltage averaged 108 in a 6-3 win over the Scot. The world champion will play Krzysztof Ratajski in the semi-finals. The Polish Eagle ended Corey Cadby's run, winning 6-4. Daryl Gurney beat Danny Noppert 6-2 to round off the semi-final line-up.
Meanwhile, a tiebreaking play-off was needed. Ted Evetts beat Michael Rasztovits 6-1 to receive a bye through the first round in Minehead. The pair could not be separated after six events. Evetts takes 64th place in the UK Open Order of Merit, while Rasztovits finishes in 65th. Incredibly, 12 players will face off for the last two spots in the Order of Merit. Jeff Smith and Robert Marijanovic are among the players tied for the 95th and 96th places. But Marijanovic, who is absent, will miss out on taking part in the play-offs.

- Scuttle off then Crockstar Always whining and crying about something as it is the only news this talentless nobody can generate as he is certainly never generating it from the oche. He isn't good enough and has an excuse every time. Crockstar should concentrate on his darts than watching his cheap watch. Mensur has his idiosyncrasies on the stage but no worse than most other players and did nothing wrongrichieburnettrocks22-12-2025
- I will be sorely disappointed if I don't hear at least one chorus of "There's only one Pusey Magnet" from the crowd.thebogeyman20-12-2025
- It's his attitude. Zero fight when it's not going his way and looks like the darts owe him a treble. He carries every poor visit into the next one. Maybe he should decide one final year, goodbye tour and f*ing enjoy itBandB18-12-2025
- Difficult one. Obviously has some struggles but you can't allow that behaviour. The damage to his hand from punching and blocking the pyrotechnics will keep him out for months anyway, but ban to the matchplay and fine whatever his prize money was for this event, with a heavy suspended ban on top.BandB17-12-2025
- 1 year ban and £15,000 fine.medinabello16-12-2025
- can you not at least attempt to proof read these recaps? the whitlock scutt one in particular is both inaccurate and mindbogglingly unreadablecolt16-12-2025
- Look, everyone knows he likes to wind up his opponents. Today,his worst,and always will be,best opponent,is himself. I don't dislike the bloke,but he can only blame himself.rick6715-12-2025

- DRA - just a warning please. Obviously not deliberate, in good spirits a s immediate apology. (P.s. Good on you Joe! Tough season, hope you keep that standard into the next round and beyond)BandB14-12-2025
- This bozo says he can't take darts any further and he's left it in a good place.....no-one cares about this nobody. The PDC was always in a good place before he came along. Does this buffon think the crowd are there for him.richieburnettrocks14-12-2025
