James Wade has qualified for the second round of the 2024 Swiss Darts Trophy without many problems. 'The Machine' was 6-3 too strong for Dimitri Van den Bergh in the opening round and will now face off against the fourth-seeded Gerwyn Price in the next round.
"He didn't play how he can and I certainly didn't play how I can," Wade reflected non plussed afterwards. "But I won six of them and he didn't! So I was just the luckier of the two players."

As mentioned, Wade now takes on former world champion Gerwyn Price in the second round. "Gezzy... I'm coming for you!" Wade laughs jokingly. "He's probably one of the very best dart players to have played the game and unfortunately, a close friend (laughs again). I've got a lot of respect for him, I wouldn't speak that way about many other players."
The winner of the duel between Wade and Price will take on the winner of the match between Chris Dobey and Wessel Nijman at the last sixteen.
