Fallon Sherrock will not win the opening PDC Women's Series of the weekend with former World Master, Lorraine Winstanley accounting for 'The Queen of the Palace' in the Quarter-Finals.
Winstanley edged through 4-3 with both players having darts at double in the decider but the tests won't get any easier with Lisa Ashton standing in the way between the first final of the year.
Whoever comes through will face either Rhian Griffiths or Chloe O'Brien in the final later this afternoon.
The top eight players after twelve of the twenty tournaments are qualified for the Women's World Matchplay in July. In addition, at the end of the season two more spots can be earned for the Grand Slam of Darts and the PDC World Darts Championship.
