Gerwyn Price claimed a well-earned point against Michael Smith to keep his Premier League play-off hopes alive and he will hope to sneak into the reckoning if both Nathan Aspinall and Michael van Gerwen lose on Saturday night.
Price spoke afterwards and he wants to put in an impressive display in order to put himself in the mix for the final spot.
"I was always chasing Michael and it was a difficult game but it was enjoyable," said Price, who also missed double 12 for a nine-darter and took out a 164 finish. "Michael was hitting 180s for fun but I kept my cool and I'm proud of myself.
"I didn't want to be making up the numbers tomorrow and I'm still in the running. I've always played it down but I want to get to the finals and win this tournament.
"I still want to stay in - I have to rely on other results but I'm playing a bit better and I'm full of confidence. I need to bring my A-game if I want to get anything against Gary."
