The opening two legs were shared before Wade broke throw with double 10 to move 2-1 up. But Van den Bergh came straight back with a 72 checkout to make it 2-2.

A timely break followed with a ten darter to make it 5-3 and he consolidated that with a 160 checkout to secure at least a point at 6-3.

This is when Wade rallied kicking off with back-to-back 180's and double 20 to break and trail 6-5 and he secured the draw from there.
