For Price, it was his lowest average of the tournament so far but still 100.79 with three 180's and 40% on the doubles in a 7-4 win over Danny Noppert for 'The Iceman' who will go into the final as the favourite.
After initially being locked in at 2-2, Price went 3-2 up and stretched his lead to 5-2 going two away from the victory from there. Noppert stopped the rot with an 80 checkout to make it 5-3. Price went one away at 6-4 with an 11-dart 46 checkout before sealing the deal with a 56 checkout.
While Van Duijvenbode sealed a 7-6 win over Rob Cross with a comeback win which went all the way to a decider and he will now take on Cross
Initially Cross went 3-1 and 6-2 up but after going one away, Van Duijvenbode started to mount an unlikely comeback with multiple match darts missed.
At 6-5, Cross missed 86 on the bull for the match and two more darts from there for the match and Van Duijvenbode sealed parity and went one away with a decider set.
He hit 136 to leave double 16 with Cross unable to pressure and sealed the deal from there.
