Gerwyn Price and Rob Cross were the first two players to qualify for the semifinals at the first round of play in the Premier League Darts in Cardiff. Price won 6-4 over Nathan Aspinall in front of his own crowd.
Price fell behind 0-2 early in the match, but a 13-darter and a 124 finish brought 'The Iceman' back to 2-2. In the eighth leg, Price posted a break via a 13-darter for a 5-3 lead, but Aspinall then immediately made up for that break with a 68 check-out. 'The Asp' then surrendered his own leg again, however, giving the win 6-4 to Price.
