South African Cameron Carolissen got a bye into the second round due to Kleermaker's positive test and Josh Payne (first reserve) having been in contact with a person who tested positive. Now he's playing 25th ranked Danny Noppert and Noppert is playing....absolutely terrible  

 

Carolissen has already won the first five legs before Noppert finally won one (because Carolissen missed a dart for the set). Wow.

Too bad both Cross and Van Duijenbode could not make through, nice match. And I think it is first time that two former World Champions ended on same day.

The decade-long Dutch commentator (the one on the left) is sharp and trained in his routine in between legs, making sure the snacks don't burn

I've heard studios with a fridge, but don't know if i've seen a one with an oven  They should let these guys have some breaks, so they don't need to cook on a shift.

They have breaks when there is no action on the podium (like the breaks between sets), because that's when we switch to the host and his guests in the studio (in which the commentators are as well in their own corner)

Oh man, Waites blew the win away.. Such a pity  That checkout of Bull-25-Bull was out of this world to get a 2:1 lead in the last set and then completely lost the plot..

And then Jason Lowe of all places beat Michael Smith. Fair play to Lowe, he played excellent and it definitely wasn't just because Smith didn't really turn up, but man...he beat the 4th ranked player and still there was not a single sign of any emotion. It can hardly get any more...dull.
