Jonny Clayton came from a set down to defeat seventh seed Jose de Sousa 3-1 averaging 95 to reach the Quarter-Finals at the
World Grand Prix.
Now Clayton has firmly targeted his first maiden ranking major title after previously winning non ranked tournaments in Premier League and The Masters.
"I'm happy with that," said Clayton. "I lost the first set to a class player so I had to dig deep.
"I broke him back in the second set and I did my job. It was good darts by both of us, I kept my nerve and got over the finishing line so I'm happy.
"I'm chasing a ranked event, and hopefully this is it so let's see what happens. I'm going to try my best to get to the final and try and win it.
"Krzysztof is a class act and I've got to have my A game. Nobody's afraid of anybody any more, so if we go out and do our job well, we're hard to beat."
