At Saturday a big challenge was on the menu for the Lithuanian, as he was going up against Dave Chisnall – but the Englishman could not stop Darius Labanauskas, who won the match by 6-3.

Then at Sunday it was time for Joe Cullen to leave the tournament, as he lost 6-2 against Darius Labanauskas, meaning the Lithuanian had reached the quarter-final. An achievement he had never done before.

In the quarter-final he had to face Jose de Sousa. The Portuguese quickly got ahed by 2-0, but Labanauskas fought his way back into the game, as he checked out 64 to make it 2-2.

Then Jose de Sousa once again got ahead by two, as he made it 4-2. Darius Labanauskas however got on 4-4, before Jose de Sousa secured the victory by 6-4.
