A gap in the live results

The PDC draw lists Coulson against Patrick Geeraets in the last 32 and Ashton Brown in the last 16, but both entries still show fixture status rather than completed results. We have not inferred a score or a further win from the later-round listing. Shaun Devonald’s last-64 defeat by Callum Wilson is confirmed as 5–2.

Burnett and Warburton go out

Richie Burnett lost 5–3 to Oliver Mitchell in the last 128. Mike Warburton, who had beaten Joe Murnan 5–3, was knocked out 5–1 by Andy Hamilton at the same stage. Keenan Thomas lost a deciding leg to Radek Szaganski, going out 5–4.

Jones and Coles reach the last 64

Ewan Jones beat Martin Tonks 5–3 and Cayden Smith 5–1 before Joe Hunt ended his run with a 5–2 win. Declan Coles defeated Ultan McDyer 5–2 and William Leonard 5–4, then lost 5–1 to Derek Maclean.
