I didn&#8217;t play my best and had a lot of loose darts, but that&#8217;s what pressure does to you. Andreas kept me under pressure all the time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Clayton&#8217;s victory means he is provisionally up to fourth in the PDC world rankings and would qualify automatically for next year&#8217;s Premier League if he is still in that spot at the end of the tournament.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">In Tuesday&#8217;s opening match, Poland&#8217;s Krzysztof Ratajski beat 25th seed Luke Woodhouse 4-2 to set up a quarter-final against defending champion Luke Littler.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Woodhouse missed double 12 for a nine-dart finish in the third set, which would have been the first perfect leg of the tournament and would have earned the Englishman an additional \u00a360,000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#World #Darts #Championship #results #Justin #Hood #Jonny #Clayton #quarterfinals<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier, Welsh fifth seed Jonn&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8061,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[242],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8060"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8060"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8060\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/8061"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8060"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8060"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8060"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
