Gary Anderson is safely through to the Quarter-Finals of the World Grand Prix after seeing off Danny Noppert in a straight sets victory.
Anderson who reached the final in 2016 vanquished the Dutchman who has been in superb form as of late and joins Dirk van Duijvenbode and Simon Whitlock so far in the Quarter-Finals.
He eased through the first set without reply averaging 96 to Noppert's 61. It did get a bit more even between the pair though from there.
This was despite Anderson making it five legs in a row with a 74 checkout as he doubled his lead in the second set. Anderson missed four at doubles though to claim the second set and Noppert took out 76 to get off the mark.
He got into the groove and forced a second set decider but missed two darts to claim it and Anderson doubled his lead as a result.
Noppert's resurgence was shortlived though with Anderson going six into a nine-darter before eventually claiming both that leg and the tie from there.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- 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
