Chisnall 'relieved' after starting PDC World Championship campaign with victory over Van der Voort

Dave Chisnall is successfully through to the Third Round at the 2020 PDC World Championship but despite his scoring always being seen as the main part of his game, it was his finishing that got him out of trouble.

Chisnall hit 64 percent on the doubles in an impressive clinical display from the St Helens ace and he was pleased to get through what he called a 'difficult' first game.

He added that his preparation was brilliant going into the World Championship and that he hopes this can foreshadow a good run for him this year.

"I'm really happy with the win, Vincent is a top player so I'm relieved to get a difficult first game out of the way," said Chisnall.

"I've changed darts but it's not just that, I feel relaxed playing and I probably want it more now than ever before.

"I've never practiced like this for a World Championship and hopefully this year we're going to see the best version of myself.

"If I play my best game all the way through, who knows what could happen?"
