The afternoon session is complete to open up the Grand Slam of Darts as Gerwyn Price and Michael Smith have began their campaigns with victory at Aldersley Leisure Village.
A venue that Price is almost unbeatable at and in his opener against Ted Evetts, he set a clinical early marker against 'Super Ted' and will face Raymond van Barneveld tomorrow.
'The Iceman' sealed a 5-1 rout over Evetts with a 101.4 average and four 180's along the way with a fourth title in this tournament in his sights this week.
While Smith returned after losing in the final of the European Championship as he begins his campaign for a first major once again albeit in a nervy opening win over Lisa Ashton.
Ashton sealed a clinical hold of throw to open up but a majestic 142 checkout saw Smith take the break and the impetus as he went 3-2 up. From there, he pinned an 87 checkout on double nine for the win 5-3 in the end.

- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
