Schedule and preview Thursday evening session 2022 World Matchplay featuring Wright-Van den Bergh and Van Gerwen-Aspinall
PDCThursday, 21 July 2022 at 08:34
Eight players are left in the running at this year's World Matchplay with the first two Quarter-Finals scheduled for Thursday evening.
The first is a repeat of last year's final between Peter Wright and Dimitri van den Bergh which was won by the former. Wright won during this tournament against Madars Razma (10-4) and Krzysztof Ratajski (13-11), while Van den Bergh easily saw off Callan Rydz (10-2) and Rowby-John Rodriguez (11-6).
The head to head goes the way of Wright with 10/13 matches won with two wins for 'The Dreammaker' and a Premier League draw.
The winner of the duel between Wright and Van den Bergh will meet Michael van Gerwen or Nathan Aspinall in the semi-final. They will also compete against each other on Thursday evening.
After Van Gerwen struggled to deal with Adrian Lewis (10-7) in the first round, Joe Cullen (11-5) was convincingly defeated. Aspinall first recorded a nice 10-5 win over title outsider Luke Humphries, before also eliminating James Wade (11-9). The head-to-head is slightly in favor of the Dutchman. He has won eight of the fourteen previous matches between these two players.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
