Gerwyn Price is through to the Quarter-FInals at the World Grand Prix after an impressive victory over Kim Huybrechts.
Price dropped only three legs in the tie hitting two ton-plus checkouts to reach the last eight for the second time in three years.
After seeing off Jermaine Wattimena where his performance wasn't to his best, he saw it as a 'step in the right direction' against 'The Hurricane' and that the belief is there going into the second half of the tournament.
"I was happy to get the first set and that put me at ease, and I played pretty well from there," explained Price.
"I started really well today and put Kim under pressure. He played reasonably well but I was that bit better today, but there's still room for improvement.
"I'm more confident than I was after the first round, and this was a step in the right direction. I slipped up a couple of times and if you want to win tournaments like this then you have to be squeaky clean.
"I don't mind who I play these days, I think it's all about me. I believe in myself and if I turn up and play my A-game I'm hard to beat.
"I've not got a great record in this tournament but hopefully that can change."
