Simon Whitlock made the Quarter-Finals of the Grand Slam for the first time since 2009 in a 10-6 victory over Peter Wright.
Whitlock spoke afterwards and said that it was a great victory for him. He admitted Wright isn't at his best and he took advantage of that to complete a great victory.
"It was a great victory for me," said Whitlock. "I know Peter's not playing the best darts at the moment but I took full advantage of that.
"I've been playing really well, I do work hard and I'm just loving the game."

- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
