The end of the first round at the 29th
Players Championship tournament of the 2024 season has reached a conclusion. Sadly for one of the sport's biggest names,
Peter Wright, it's already time to depart.
The Scottish former two-time champion of the world suffered a disappointing first round defeat at the hands of Jim Williams, 6-2. Elsewhere, Williams' compatriot,
Jonny Clayton also fell at the first hurdle, dropping to a 6-3 loss to Steve Lennon. Many big names are still involved though, Michael Smith, Nathan Aspinall, Gary Anderson, Rob Cross and more are still in the hunt.
A total of 125,000 pounds in prize money is distributed at each Players Championship tournament. The winner of the event will receive a check for 15,000 pounds.
