Gary Anderson is through to the Quarter-Finals of the 2020/21 PDC World Darts Championship after breezing past Devon Petersen in a straight sets victory.
Petersen played well scoring wise with five 180's and a 94 average but his doubling was his downfall with 4/14 (29%) compared to 12/12 (52%) from 'The Flying Scotsman' who now takes on Dirk van Duijvenbode or Glen Durrant next.
To begin the tie, Anderson had a bounceout going for a 126 and with Petersen unable to pin the same target to hold, ‘The Flying Scotsman’ broke throw and flew into a 2-0 lead on double 10 despite averaging just 83.
The first set was concluded with a clean sweep for Anderson as he flew into an early lead. Petersen though roared back with a break in the form of a 110 checkout and double his lead from there.
He began to pick up steam but Anderson smashed in a 160 checkout out of nowhere to pile pressure onto Petersen to conclude the set.
He didn’t and Anderson pinned double two to suddenly go towards a two set lead after Petersen dominated the set. A 97 checkout saw Anderson claim it 3-2 to suddenly head into a 2-0 lead.
A 70 checkout saw a 14 darter from Petersen to open the set and hold but missed doubles continued to be a problem as he threw away the set in a deciding leg and this handed Anderson daylight.
An 80 checkout followed by Anderson to continue his procession through into the fourth set and a clean sweep followed from there finished with a 64 checkout on double eight.

- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
