Josh Rock will not move into the Quarter-Finals of the Grand Slam of Darts after defeat to Michael van Gerwen in one of the best matches seen on the Aldersley Leisure Village stage.
But despite the loss, Rock who hit a nine-dart finish during the tie was pleased with his efforts during the tournament and making a statement to the rest of the darting world in the process.
“I know it's only one leg, but when you hit a nine-darter in the Grand Slam it can only give you confidence," said Rock post match.
“I'm not sad to go out of the tournament – I'm happy because I've shown everyone what I can do.”
