WRIGHT KO'S PLAISIER! 🥊 Peter Wright lands a huge 82 checkout to get over the line against Wesley Plaisier. A massive win for the two-time World Champion in his bid to stay up in the rankings! 📺 #WCDarts | R1

In context that’s got to be one of the biggest wins of his career, used all his class to get over the line at the end fair play

Peter Wright won a game

Great to see Wright get a big win on that stage. Probably not many of these days left for one of the best ever

Happy for Peter to get over the line. But wattamina will win in round 3 the way he’s playing

Surely Wattimena has to be favourite for the next match

Brought a tear to the eye that

So close

Experience won that game, and it showed

Weird game. Feel like Plaisier could’ve won 3-0 if he took his chances. Big fan of him tho.

Plaisier has got the game to be a top player, he showed glimpses tonight. But Wright’s big game and big stage experience was the difference.
