Wright and Price both safely through to third round of Hungarian Darts Trophy

Peter Wright and Gerwyn have both safely navigated potentially tricky second round ties at the Hungarian Darts Trophy in Budapest, successfully ensuring a Sunday return.

Although Waites did grow into the tie, the damage was done for the former Lakeside champion as he left himself to big of a hurdle to overcome as Wright prevailed 6-3.
