James Wade edged through to the second round at the World Matchplay after seeing off Jeffrey de Zwaan in a thrilling contest which went all the way to a sudden death leg.
Wade spoke after his victory and said that while he should have won sooner he is excited to be through. Despite that though he said that he wasn't happy with the way he played so in reality to get through is a relief.
"I'm so excited to be through," said Wade. "I should have got it over sooner but I stuck in there and did the job.
"I'm happy to win but not happy with how I played, so it's a relief."

- This is wrong. Surely the highest ranked of the two first round players should have got the second round spot with Huybrechts taking their place in the first round.Mysstree18-10-2024
- They are both legends and should be celebrated and have brought darts to where it is now. A statue should be put in Kirkcaldy for Jocky. The town has changed a lot.ListerAnderson16-10-2024

- I would not change the format of any of the ranking events to make them double start. Grand Prix is unique and should stay that way.Mysstree15-10-2024
- Given how exciting this Grand Prix was, is there an argument that more top tournaments should have the double-start double-finish format? As a darts fan, I love to see lesser-known players excelling on the world stage and going deep into tournaments.
