After a blistering start to the second round, the final four quarter-finalists will be announced Wednesday night. Previously Daryl Gurney, Nathan Aspinall, Joe Cullen, and Chris Dobey placed the last eight, will we see surprises again on Wednesday?
We begin with the biggest surprise of the first round. Brendan Dolan provided a huge shock by sending Michael van Gerwen home. He takes on Damon Heta, who expertly handled Josh Rock.
Dimitri van den Bergh next meets Jonny Clayton for a spot in the last eight. Peter Wright, the last player from the top five of the world rankings still in the tournament, faces Ryan Searle.
In the last match of the second round, it's the last Dutchman's turn. Dirk van Duijvenbode meets Luke Humphries, and that's a reunion with the player who kept him from the title at the European Darts Matchplay earlier this month. At that tournament Van Duijvenbode missed four matchdarts for the overall win before Humphries walked away with the top prize.

Where can I watch the World Matchplay on TV?

The tournament will be broadcast in full on Sky Sports going between Action and Main Event.
From Saturday, July 15 through Wednesday, July 20, broadcasts will begin around 7 p.m. ET. In addition, on Sunday, July 16, there will be an afternoon session starting at 1 p.m. After the second round, the starting time of the evening sessions moves up one hour.
On Sunday afternoon, July 24, the second edition of the Women's World Matchplay is scheduled to begin at 1:00 pm. Here, eight ladies will compete for the title at the most important women's tournament in the PDC.

How much prize money can be earned at the World Matchplay

After the World Darts Championship, the World Matchplay is the ranking tournament with the largest prize pool at the PDC. A total of 800,000 pounds of prize money is up for grabs at this event.
All 32 participants are guaranteed £10,000 in prize money. This could eventually add up to a check of as much as £200,000 for the darter who gets to lift the Phil Taylor Trophy on Sunday, July 23.
