Like yesterday at Players Championship 20, many of the big names have failed to make it through the opening hurdle during the latest set of ProTours. Michael van Gerwen won in his opener yesterday before losing to Mensur Suljovic and he has lost even earlier today.
Graham Usher has accounted for the Dutchman who is making his first appearance since losing in the World Matchplay to Brendan Dolan. He lost narrowly 6-5.
Many of the top names are playing this week due to Players Championship Finals spots being far from secure. Peter Wright too isn't sure of one and his charge was also ended early. He lost to Richie Burnett.
Jonny Clayton is also out early with Luke Humphries, Michael Smith, Dirk van Duijvenbode on the other hand moving through. Gian van Veen also continued his heroics with a 111 average to topple Damian Mol in a performance of the round.
A total of 100,000 pounds in prize money is distributed at each Players Championship tournament. The winner of the event will receive a check for 12,000 pounds.
