The 2023 Masters has begun with Dave Chisnall and James Wade through to the second round in Milton Keynes after victories to begin Friday evening.
It was two games of contrast as Chisnall performed an epic great escape to see off Ryan Searle in the opening match of the evening. Recovering from 4-1 down, he survived five match darts in sealing the win.
Doing so in style, he hit a 161 checkout in the decider to see off 'Heavy Metal'. Next up will be Peter Wright tomorrow evening.
Wade proved too strong for Callan Rydz, who was making his debut at the Masters. Thanks to an average of almost 99, 'The Machine' won 6-2 over Rydz.
This also with three 180's and 75% on the doubles, tomorrow afternoon, it will be Jonny Clayton.
