Michael van Gerwen will not head towards the O2 with back-to-back defeats but nearly was thrashed by Cameron Crabtree at Players Championship 12.

Van Gerwen was 5-1 down and came back to win 6-5 against the rising star after his defeat to Boris Krcmar yesterday. He only averaged 88 and is playing this weekend despite his shoulder injury.

Others through to the second round include Gerwyn Price who eased past Lee Evans 6-1. Joe Cullen saw off Matthew Dennant to win 6-2 with a 109 average.

Jonny Clayton also produced an average just shy of 110 in seeing off Karel Sedlacek 6-0.

In terms of the second round, Gary Anderson, Gabriel Clemens, Chris Dobey and Jose de Sousa are among the early winners through to the board finals in Leicester.
