Good morning darts fans!
If you missed it last night, we had a host of close encounters as the players battled to get into today’s second round.
This is where the big boys come into it after receiving a bye from yesterday’s action.
That includes Luke Littler, who is a short price favourite to win this in Antwerp.
That despite some emergency dental work earlier this week!
Some tasty ties to look forward to today.

ICYMI – why Gerwyn Price withdrew
Gerwyn Price issued a worrying health update in a hospital photo after being forced to withdraw from the Players Championship.
The darts star, 40, was one of the favourites for the PDC title after some storming wins this season.
But he wasn’t involved in the draw and posted a health update showing himself in hospital.
The slinger uploaded a photo of his right hand looking extremely red and swollen.
Price captioned the snap: “Just what I didn’t want, back to the hospital it is.”
