The opening ties are complete in the evening session at the Players Championship Finals with Nathan Aspinall, Jamie Hughes and Vincent van der Voort through.

Aspinall survived a real scare from former Grand Slam winner Scott Waites with five missed match darts from 'Scotty 2 Hotty' went begging and the Stockport ace snatched a 6-5 victory to avoid an early exit in the opening round.

While over on Stage Two, it was a lot simpler for Hughes who eased past his new stablemate Ricky Evans with a 6-2 win with a 99 average and 50% on the doubles.

It was also commanding for Van der Voort who saw off his compatriot Derk Telnekes also 6-2 to begin action on the other stage.
