Peter Wright will face off against Michael Smith in the last confirmed Quarter-Final of the International Darts Open in Riesa after victories over Niko Springer and Dirk van Duijvenbode respectively.
Wright impressed in seeing off home hope Springer 6-2 who had a quality weekend in seeing off Jermaine Wattimena and Brendan Dolan before falling to the potential World Number One in waiting who will take over if Gerwyn Price does not win the title.
He hit multiple ton-plus checkouts in the form of 114 twice, 104 and 134 to win it as he continues his brilliant form so far this year with a 97 average and 54.5% on the doubles also for ‘Snakebite’.
Next up will be Smith who demolished Dirk van Duijvenbode in a 6-1 win to conclude the session. It was a superb display from ‘Bully Boy’ who averaged 102.5 in moving through.
This featured two 180’s and 54.5% on the doubles compared to a ten less average from Van Duijvenbode who bows out in the Last 16 averaging 92 but hitting ¼ on the doubles in defeat to the St Helens ace.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
