Lee Cocks easily dumps out Luke Littler as Van Gerwen survives at Players Championship 27

The second round is complete at Players Championship 27 with some big names remaining and also some leaving the tournament. Luke Littler the biggest of all as Lee Cocks accounted for him in a 6-2 win.

Littler is second seed today and is playing for the first time since his loss to Rob Cross at the World Grand Prix but he won't go any further. Michael van Gerwen also survived a scare as he narrowly defeated Scott Williams 6-5.

Also wins for Michael Smith, Chris Dobey, Rob Cross, James Wade, Jonny Clayton, Luke Humphries and Gerwyn Price. James Hurrell (105) and Damon Heta (103) were among those to impress the most.
