The First Round of Players Championship 10 Sees Mixed Fortunes for Darts Stars
The first round of the Players Championship 10 has concluded, and it’s been a mixed bag for the darts stars. Three-time world champion Michael van Gerwen suffered a disappointing 6-5 defeat at the hands of Karel Sedlacek, despite averaging over 100 in the match. This comes on the heels of van Gerwen’s first-round exit at Monday’s PC9.
On a more positive note, other top players like Michael Smith, Peter Wright, and Gary Anderson cruised through to the second round. However, the history-making Noa-Lynn van Leuven fell to Lakeside champion Andy Baetens in the opening round.
