While Bunting secured a spot in the last eight at the Winmau World Masters. 'The Bullet' managed to get rid of Peter Wright 4-2 in sets in the second round.

Meanwhile, Bunting is unbeaten on the stage in Milton Keynes for seven matches in a row. Last year, Bunting managed to take the title when the tournament was still called the Masters. Since then, the event has received a major upgrade and the tournament was renamed the Winmau World Masters.

Bunting managed to win the first set 2-0 by throwing out 70, and then doubled the lead to 2-0 by winning set two 2-1. Wright, however, brought the tension back by grabbing the third set. This required a 17-darter and a 15-darter. Snakebite' then had chances to even the score, but missed two set pieces to make it 2-2. Bunting took advantage with a 14-darter to make it 3-1.

Bunting got his first matchdart in the fifth set, but missed his chance at tops. That miss was punished by Wright, who managed to finish 120 and win the fifth set 2-1. However, Bunting immediately took the lead in the sixth set with a 97 finish, before Wright tied the score again in set six with a 122 finish. Bunting then got to finish it off on his own throw and with a 13-darter he succeeded.
