The first semi-final is confirmed at the Czech Darts Open with Rob Cross set to face Dave Chisnall later this evening in Prague.
Cross now has back-to-back victories over Michael van Gerwen after an out-of-sorts display from 'The Green Machine' who averaged just 91.3 in defeat compared to nearly 95 for Cross featuring four 180s and 46.2% on the doubles.
Once again, it was doubles that proved to be the issue for Van Gerwen who missed 10 darts in all and sat at 28.6% in defeat.
While in a dramatic win, Chisnall is through to his third European Tour semi-final of the season and could add a third title in doing so. He saw off Nathan Aspinall 6-5 with six 180's and a 101.5 average.
He did so by winning the last two legs after being 5-4 down to Aspinall but he saved his skin featuring a 120 checkout en route and now faces Cross.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
