Dave Chisnall has withdrawn from the William Hill World Darts Championship after testing positive for Covid-19 ahead of his match with Luke Humphries. Humphries will receive a bye to the last 16 and Wednesday afternoon's session will continue with two matches.
Chisnall next victim of COVID-19 infection at World Darts Championship

Once again a player has been forced to leave the PDC World Darts Championship. This time it is not a Dutchman who has tested positive, but Dave Chisnall, last year's semi-finalist.
Earlier this week, Vincent van der Voort and Michael van Gerwen already tested positive, after which they were eliminated from the tournament. Raymond van Barneveld also tested positive, but that was already after his defeat against Rob Cross.
Due to the positive test of Chisnall, the Englishman had to withdraw from the tournament. Luke Humphries, who would have been his opponent in the third round, gets a bye to the fourth round. Chris Dobey, who took advantage of Michael van Gerwen's withdrawal, is waiting for him.
