Jose de Sousa is through to face Jonny Clayton on Friday afternoon at the European Championship after a superb session which saw 'The Special One' achieve perfection against Jeffrey de Zwaan.
For De Sousa, while it was a great feeling, he admitted the win was the most important thing for him to begin his campaign.
"It is amazing to hit my first 9-darter on the television," said De Sousa. "This feeling is very special but it is more important to win.
"I am very proud today - this is fantastic for me. I am always trying to improve but I am enjoying my game and I will do everything to get better.
"It is nice for people to say I am one of the best players in the world at the moment but for me it's not true. I have to keep working hard and keep winning."
Also with doubts being cast over the Phillipines entry into this year's World Cup, De Sousa revealed Portugal are first reserve to play in the tournament.
"I hope this year. At the moment we won't have that confirmation that we can play, we wait for the Philippines. If they don't come, we are first reserve to play the World Cup."

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
