RODRIGUEZ SURVIVES! Rowby-John Rodriguez survives two match darts as he comes through a roller-coaster contest with Dirk van Duijvenbode to become the first quarter-finalist! Up next👉 Jose de Sousa v Jose Justicia Watch📺 bit.ly/PDCTVLive
The first Quarter-Final is confirmed at the Czech Darts Open and it will see Rowby-John Rodriguez face Jose de Sousa in the bottom half this evening in Prague.
Rodriguez is into his first European Tour Quarter-Final in three years after edging out Dirk van Duijvenbode 6-5 as he continues his brilliant return to form.
He nearly sealed it a lot easier as he went into a 4-1 lead over 'The Titan' but an 80 checkout completed the turnaround for the Dutchman who made it 4-4 and a 76 checkout saw him take the lead but two missed match darts allowed Rodriguez off the hook and on his way to victory.
It was a similar tale for the battle of the Jose's as De Sousa defeated Justicia in a 6-5 victory as 'The Special One' looks to hit top form once more.
De Sousa went into a 4-2 lead but like the opener, Justicia went into a 5-4 lead before missing three match darts allowing De Sousa to close out a 6-5 victory with a 98.8 average.
