Jeffrey de Zwaan has been attempting a career resurgence for some time after falling off the PDC Tour and having to go to Q-School this past January but he is now into the sixth round of the UK Open after dumping out 'The Iceman' Gerwyn Price.
De Zwaan came from 4-0 down to prevail 10-8 with a 105 average and some superb scoring power including 10 180's but also 52.6% on the doubles and he will be in the draw later on.
After being down early on, he kickstarted his revival with a 110 checkout for 4-2 down before sealing parity with a 48 checkout for an 11-darter. Taking the lead from there, he went 6-4 up and his run of legs continued turning the tables completely with a 61 checkout for a 7-4 lead.
Price though stopped the rot and sealed parity at 7-7 as the match took another turn but it went back the way of De Zwaan who sealed back-to-back legs including an 11-darter to win it.
He is joined in that draw later on by William O'Connor who dumped out the defending champion Danny Noppert. It was a superb final leg from 'The Magpie' who led throughout and has a love affair with this tournament reaching the latter stages last year and will be dreaming of another run this time around. He prevailed 10-9.

- 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
