The first round of Players Championship 30 has reached a conclusion. Some big names have departed too, including Rob Cross and Nathan Aspinall.
For Cross, a last leg decider with Mervyn King proved the fatal blow, ending 'Voltage's Pro Tour season on a disappointment. It's a big victory for King though in his quest to keep his PDC Tour Card. As mentioned, Aspinall also has been dumped out, dropping to a 6-3 loss to Dutchman, Kevin Doets in the opening round this afternoon in Leicester.
A total of 125,000 pounds in prize money is distributed at each Players Championship tournament. The winner of the event will receive a check for 15,000 pounds.
