The Quarter-Finals are set at the 2022 World Seniors Darts Matchplay with Martin Adams set to face Lisa Ashton tomorrow afternoon with 'Wolfie' easing past Bob Anderson 8-2 to start his campaign.
Adams was poor to begin the tie but when it looked like a 2-0 deficit was likely, he produced a 180 to leave 46 which he pinned to break back at 1-1. He took the lead on double 20 to hold and a break followed for a 3-1 lead.
Double eight saw him consolidate as he went into a 4-1 lead but with a superb 180, Anderson headed into the interval only 4-2 down. On return, Adams produced an 11-darter for a 96 checkout to break as he headed 6-2 up.
He went 7-2 from there and following that, he went six darts into a nine-dart finish before finally pinning double five to seal it.
While for Ashton, it was a second win of the day after taking out Paul Hogan, it was the inaugural PDC World Matchplay winner, Larry Butler who was grounded by 'The Lancashire Rose' in an 8-4 win with an 80 average.
Ashton broke in the opening leg and followed it up with a 180 and double nine to hold and go 2-0 up. Butler fought back breaking Ashton’s throw to make it 2-2 but Ashton fought back with 180, 140 and finished it off on double eight to go 3-2 up.
Both had missed a smattering of doubles going into the interval but Ashton was halfway to the Quarter-Finals at 4-2 up. On return, Ashton won two legs on the spin including another break on double 16 to go 6-2 up but Butler broke throw to make it 6-4 to attempt to halt Ashton’s progression and stop the rot.
Only for Ashton to break back and go one away at 7-4 up with a 70 checkout. Having the throw to win it, she hit 76 to leave 36 pinning it first time for the win.

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- 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
