Michael Smith is into the final of Players Championship 16 and sits on the verge of three ProTour titles in a row in Niedernhausen after breezing past Josh Rock in a sensational display.
Smith averaged 106 in winning 7-3 with Rock himself into his maiden ProTour semi-final averaging 103 but to no avail as 'Bully Boy' stormed through.
The player looking to stop him is Dirk van Duijvenbode as two of the big names in the field have gone all the way to the final. He saw off the other half of the Development Tour standouts to make it in Keane Barry in an emphatic 7-1 win averaging 93. But who takes home the title in Germany?
