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.

- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024
- Was a great match and am a fan of Scott, don't see much of him on TV. How the hell is Cross 5 in the world, he goes out almost immediately in every competition.richieburnettrocks24-12-2024
- He has Guillerme Barre Syndrome. Nerve damage due to autoimmune response. Could take him months to recover if at all.medinabello23-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
