The Quarter-Finalists at the 2020 UK Open are close to being confirmed with Jelle Klaasen and Dimitri van den Bergh making it through in Minehead.

Klaasen continued his resurgent run at the UK Open by knocking out Gary Anderson in a match; which went all the way to the deciding leg. 'The Cobra' is now into his first TV Quarter-Final since 2016; as he aims to reemerge.
Anderson's doubling was woeful to begin the tie with it down at just 1/10 as he allowed Klaasen to open up a 3-1 lead with relative ease.
'The Flying Scotsman' began to find his range and he produced a brilliant 124 checkout to do so going to 4-3 behind but despite that Klaasen always kept him at arms length.
'The Black Cobra' went to the point of no return at 9-8 up as he went one away but despite that Anderson popped up with a 150 checkout to force the decider. This did not help him to victory though as Klaasen moves through.
Van den Bergh has ended the run of Kyle McKinstry coming from 4-0 down to defeat 'The Village Man' who has been exceptional this weekend. He claimed the tie 10-8 and en route he hit nine 180's and a 94 average as The Dreammaker reaches the Quarter-Finals at the event for the first time.
