Gerwyn Price has navigated his first hurdle at this year's UK Open successfully with a 10-5 victory over 'The Rock' Peter Hudson on the Main Stage.
Price had to pull out of the final two days of the Super Series due to an ongoing ear infection and despite not being 100% still, 'The Iceman' proved too good for Hudson and is into the hat for the Last 32.

Price began the tie with a blockbuster 140 checkout but barring that, he struggled in the opening stages.
Despite that, Hudson could not mount a challenge of his own to trouble 'The Iceman' and Price went 3-2 up at the interval.
Price returned though and smashed in a 156 checkout to head 5-2 up and followed that up by making it a commanding 7-3 lead at the next interval.
Holds of throw followed and this allowed Price to head 8-4 up and towards the finishing line.
Double 10 was pinned from there for Price to break and go one away at 9-4 up.
Hudson gained a break back but despite missing two match darts, Price was back for double five for the victory after 'The Rock' couldn't muster a shot at 92.

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
