The draw for the Last 16 at the 2023 UK Open is coming up shortly and four more top names have completed the line-up in Minehead in the form of Peter Wright, Dimitri van den Bergh, Jonny Clayton and Rob Cross.
Wright survived a scare on the Main Stage as he prevailed 10-8 over Callan Rydz. It was far from his brilliant best but he managed to get over the line with a 92 average and a high checkout of 121 with 'The Riot' missing 21 darts at doubles through the tie.
Dimitri van den Bergh could've had a scare on his hands as Mervyn King spurned seven darts to force a deciding leg but in the end 'The Dreammaker' prevailed 10-9.
While on the other stages, Clayton continues to navigate quietly but is an in-form player and showed that by powering past Jose de Sousa 10-3 with a 96.6 average.
He was joined in turn with a 10-3 victory also for Rob Cross who saw off Steve Beaton to end the legend's run who has also shown signs of a resurgence.

- 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
