The first two quarterfinals of the
World Matchplay were scheduled for Thursday evening. The crowd got their money's worth as both games were won by just two legs.
First it was
Dimitri van den Bergh who managed to qualify for the last four at the expense of
Peter Wright.
Michael van Gerwen then seemed on his way to an easy victory over
Nathan Aspinall. However, Aspinall fought back strongly from an 11-4 deficit and the final score was only 16-14 in favor of the Dutchman.
