Evening round-up
Michael van Gerwen defied a spectacular nine-darter from Josh Rock to win one of the greatest games in Cazoo Grand Slam of Darts history on a scintillating Thursday night in Wolverhampton.
Van Gerwen continued his bid for a fourth Eric Bristow Trophy with an inspired display at the Aldersley Leisure Village, averaging 107 and landing four ton-plus checkouts to close out a breathless 10-8 victory.
Elsewhere, Alan Soutar continued his dream Grand Slam debut in Wolverhampton, resisting a late fightback from Jonny Clayton to complete a 10-8 success and move through to his first televised quarter-final.
Soutar – who only sealed his qualification through the recent Tour Card Holder Qualifier – produced one of his best big stage performances to secure a landmark win at the Aldersley Leisure Village.
In the evening’s opener, Nathan Aspinall booked his spot in a second Grand Slam quarter-final after overcoming a mid-game slump to defeat a resurgent Jermaine Wattimena 10-6.
