Next up for Durrant is Vincent van der Voort as he aims to go one further than last year and reach the final with an opportunity to win his first PDC Major title. He said despite his performance not being up to his standard that he has to utilise the chance he has.
“I’m always looking for perfection. I just had a really bizarre time up there, I just felt the treble 19 was the smallest treble on the board, and treble 19 was a huge part of my game," said Durrant post-match to Online Darts.
“I knew Peter wasn’t at his best, but I’m really happy.”
"You've got to grab these opportunities. I talked about my age, my experience. The Quarter-Finals of the World Matchplay aren't gonna come everyday of the week so I've got to grab these chances while I can."
