Wright who spoke about his opponents lack of ability to beat him before hand made sure that it was the case with the highest average of the tournament so far of 105.
This was alongside 50% of his doubles and a high checkout of 130. For ‘Snakebite’ he will want to go one better than last year and tonight could be the start of staking his claim for the title.
Next up for him is Simon Whitlock as the Quarter-Finals have taken shape in Blackpool with it still very much up for grabs.
