The second round line-up is confirmed at the 2021 World Matchplay with Gary Anderson through after a comfortable 10-5 victory over Stephen Bunting.
A tricky tie on paper before the match, Bunting didn't perform to his recent form and Anderson coasted through in the end to set up a tie with Nathan Aspinall.
It was a slow start from the duo but Anderson led Bunting in the early going 3-2 and this increased to a 4-2 lead despite only averaging 85.
But as Anderson got better, Bunting stagnated and at the interval, Anderson's lead was soon 7-3 as he was running away with it as 'The Bullet' was only averaging 79.
He didn't hand it to Anderson though and despite an average of only 84, he took two further legs to make it interesting at 8-5. But Anderson was soon one away from the finishing line which he completed without a deal of fuss.

- Even the wild crowd went easy on him... we really have gone soft in this country. He should now play in the men's events and try and recover a smidgen of respect, rather than take advantage of the women's game.MrYnyslas197118-12-2024

- We don't need the Saudi's money and prohibitive laws. Simply take the World's to other countries like Germany, Holland, Scotland, Poland, Belgium. Not only will you get sell out crowds with bigger venues but it will also freshen up the comp a bit. Let's face it Ally Pally is getting a bit boring now. Imagine 10,000 in Berlin, Rotterdam, Brussels etc.medinabello15-12-2024
- Am probably going to be in a small minority, i would not miss the walk ons, best part used to be the lovely ladies which obviously now makes me a misogynist. Its all part of the razzamatazz show business side and its not that long so not something that winds me up however some of the walk on choices are abysmal while some work, MVG and Seven Nation Army being an example. Dimi the Dancer is / was just awful and Peter Wrights is old hat now.Mysstree14-12-2024
