Clayton spoke afterwards and admitted that he doesn't read into statistics and other aspects of his opponents before he plays and that his sole focus is winning matches.

"Obviously it's a short format. To play against Ian White was brilliant, that's a good win for me and I'm chuffed to bits," said Clayton to Online Darts post match.

"I'm not into politics, I don't read into many things. I just go up there and play because I'm not the brainiest. I don't look at statistics, I want to do well, I want to win matches that's all I think about."
