NewsSunday, 06 May 2018 at 21:11
James Wade has continued his brilliant return to form with a Machine like performance to see off Danny Noppert who was into his first PDC semi-final.
He will now face Michael van Gerwen who smashed Michael Smith 7-0 and will know he will have an uphill battle to see off 'Mighty Mike' but if anyone can do it, Wade can.
'The Machine' hit a 96.6 average which was enough to beat Noppert 7-3 who averaged just a tiny bit less than the former 7 time major champion. He hit 53% of his doubles which was the key and could be an asset he could use against Van Gerwen.

- Well done Mike – good to move on and look to the future. With his talent, and increasing confidence on stage, he'll be a force to be reckoned with in the month ahead.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
