Richardson went through with 20 points having won 10 and lost five in all. This saw him end up on +15 which was the same as Shaun McDonald but it was 'Ruthless' that went through.
While Colin Osborne similarly finished on 10 wins and five losses but 'The Wizard' finished on 0 leg difference so didn't figure in that top two battle.
The numbers two, three and four of the ranking will play a new group against two new players on Thursday evening and Friday evening. This is Chas Barstow and Jamie Clark.
The numbers five and six of the ranking on Wednesday will also play a new group against new participants. Richie Burnett, Jarred Cole, Greg Ritchie and Scott Marsh are the entrants in this group. They will be in action on Thursday afternoon and Friday afternoon.
From the evening group, three players go to the final group and from the morning group two, so that the final group consists of six players.
Unlike the first edition of the Modus League in 2020, the game will not be played online via a webcam connection, but at a location in Southampton, England. The matches can be followed via the Online Darts YouTube channel .
