Chris Dobey and Peter Wright have also qualified for the last eight of the Euro Tour tournament in Antwerp. After an exciting match, the former Masters champion prevailed 6-5 against Josh Rock.
Dobey started the match strong with a 180, but it was Rock who took the first leg via a 13-darter. 'Rocky' then kept his own leg with a 75 finish, after which Dobey secured his first leg with a 104 check-out.
In the fourth leg, Dobey was on 81 after nine arrows, but "Hollywood" missed the bullseye for the equalizer. Because Rock then missed two doubles, a 14-darter by Dobey equalized the match. Rock scored his eighth 180 in the fifth leg, but missed a chance to regain the lead. Dobey punished this miss with a 104 finish and took the lead for the first time.
The next three legs went with the darts, before Rock posted another break in the ninth with a 13-darter. 'Rocky' could not get out in five innings, however, after which Dobey forced a final leg with a 15-darter. Dobey then got to start the final leg, and pulled out the win via a 16-darter.

Also a win went 6-5 to Luke Woodhouse as he took down Gian van Veen who slumped after holding an early lead.
The Dutchman immediately took advantage in the first leg of a poor start by Woodhouse, who was not out in five innings. Van Veen broke him with a 124 finish and then took a 2-0 lead with an 18-darter. Woodhouse then missed five chances to keep his own leg, after which Van Veen took advantage again and made it 3-0.

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
