Nathan Aspinall produced the first nine-dart finish just half an hour to PDC Super Series 7 but it didn't prove to matter in terms of winning his first round against Keegan Brown.
Aspinall went 180, 180, 141 but he was already 5-2 down at this point with Brown going onto win from there despite a 113 average from 'The Asp'.
It remains the 32nd nine-dart finish of the season though in a superb foray from the Stockport ace.
