“It was a big win, Gary is the class boy, one of the big names in darts. It’s a massive win. I never give up. He’s the kind of boy I always fight to the end. I’m glad I did,” said Dube.
“Gary said something to us on the last break and I didn’t like it. It upset me and there was no way we could win the game after that.
“I went out and tried to forget about it. He’s a class player but I didn’t agree with what he said. I made sure I won this match.
“I’ve been in this situation a few times so I’m hoping to get over that hurdle. I’m still in the competition.”
