Now this tournament is worth less, Price had explained before his match. He referred to the coronary failure of world-class player Michael Van Ger wen.
Regardless of the corona turbulence, the reigning world champion made it clear on Wednesday evening that the victory will probably only lead him to this year's tournament. Van Duijvenbode Reich needed the first sentence to get into the match. Then he set off.
At the beginning, the Welsh showed difficulties in the finish. His counterparty could use this weakness and decided the first set of 3: 2 for themselves. Van Duijvenbodes leg to the sentence gain should be the last, in which he was a winner, for FORTRAN dominated Price and left the Dutch barely a chance.
Price checks 164 — van duijvenbode resigned at the end
Two breaks in the second set (3: 0) first brought compensation. He then showed tremendous strength — both in scoring and double. According to FLOAT, set number three and four went 3-0 to the Welsh.
In the fifth, ultimately decisive phrase, Price first succeeded in its highest checkout (164). Van Duijvenbode already looked quite resigned here — nothing wanted to succeed. For example, price, which was average 96.66 points per picture, finished with a 136 the third leg and thus the match.
Smith defeats Clayton in the seventh set
It was highly classified in the subsequent eighth place between Michael Smith and Jonny Clayton. The latter had dominated the first two sentences and already led 2-0, before Smith found in the match and all.
It developed a duel at eye level. Both players participate in part of high checkouts in a row, after which they had to partially smile themselves. Clayton saved himself in the seventh set, which then Smith just decided to extend over the Two-Clear Legs rule (6: 4).
The numbers were also impressive: 25 times the two succeeded in the 180 (Clayton: 14, Smith: 11), 65 other recordings gave at least 140 points. Smith also had a strong checkout ratio of 45 percent.
