Mighty Mike up and running.

Quote:

Michael Van Gerwen failed to find his best form but still had too much for Paul Lim in the opening round of the PDC World Championship.

The Dutchman didn't manage to display the type of form that has made him the second favourite to lift the trophy at Alexandra Palace, struggling badly on his doubles in a battle between two players at opposite ends of their careers.

However the 23-year-old still cruised to a 3-0 result against Lim, who had earlier defeated Mohd Latif Sapup 4-1 in a preliminary clash.

Taylor joy; Winstanley nine-darter.

Quote:

Phil Taylor serenely made it through to the quarter-finals of the PDC World Darts Championship in the last match before the tournament shut down for Christmas.

Quote:

Before him, Andy Hamilton sounded a warning to those above him in the pecking order with an impressive 4-1 win over Terry Jenkins.

Quote:

Also in ominous form was many people's title favourite, Michael van Gerwen.

The Dutchman was up against the flamboyance of Peter Wright and seemed a little stage-struck early on as he went 2-0 down, but won four sets on the reel to book his place in the third round after the Christmas break.
