Part two of a big weekend saw the Pro-Am qualifiers conclude with a last man standing knockout on Sunday afternoon.

Eighteen players descended on the Ex Service Club and Scott Sutton pulled the dreaded number one out the hat.

James Richards was his first opponent, drawing number two.

Sutton hung on to record his first win and he continued his winning run with a fantastic 114 checkout against Rob Pomeroy.

In a cracker of a game with Scott Smith both players hit 180.

But it was Sutton who held his nerve to get victory number four.

Next up was Scott Millar, playing on a crutch with his knee heavily strapped up.

He made short work of his predicament by winning this and his next game against David Kitching, his two-win streak halted by Jonathan Thorndike, who then lost straight away to Simon Harris.

Rob O’Brien won a game before Spencer Davis hit an 18 dart leg, only to be beated by Rick Seaman, who then went on a three-match run.

Nick Casswell beat him, Casswell then losing to Chris Fletcher.

Fletcher beat Jay Prince to set up the final game against Kemp.
