It’s a crucial Monday night Day 3 of the 2024 Mr. Vegas Grand Slam of Darts, as the players in Groups A through D head into their final round of group matches. With some spots in the knockout stages already secured and others still hanging in the balance, fans can expect a night of intense competition and high stakes in Wolverhampton.
In Group A, Mickey Mansell has already clinched his spot in the second round after an impressive showing, while defending champion Luke Humphries has been surprisingly eliminated after just two matches. Mansell will aim to secure the top spot in the group, while Humphries, now out of the running, will be looking to finish his tournament on a high note. Meanwhile, James Wade and Rowby-John Rodriguez will face a direct battle to determine who will advance alongside Mansell.
In Group D, Dave Chisnall’s tournament journey is over, but he’ll still play his final match against Ritchie Edhouse, who has clinched a spot in the knockout rounds following his recent European Championship victory. The outcome of the match between Ross Smith and Connor Scutt will decide the group’s second qualifier. It’s a win-or-go-home scenario for both Smith and Scutt: the winner moves on, while the loser joins Chisnall in elimination. Edhouse could still secure the top spot in the group depending on the results of this key clash.
In Group B, Danny Noppert leads the standings but isn’t guaranteed a spot in the last sixteen yet. Noppert will face Martin Schindler in his final group match, and a win would secure his place in the knockouts. Schindler, who lost to Cameron Menzies but defeated Beau Greaves, still has a shot at qualifying depending on his result and that of Menzies, who plays Greaves. If Menzies wins by two legs or more, he’ll join the knockout round automatically.
Group C is still wide open, though Peter Wright’s chances are slim after back-to-back losses. The Scot needs a flawless 5-0 victory over Rob Cross to stay in the tournament. However, his qualification also depends on Leonard Gates, who needs just two legs against Martin Lukeman to secure his advancement. If Gates wins against Lukeman, Wright will be eliminated, regardless of his result against Cross. Cross, on the other hand, only needs to match Gates’ result in his match to qualify for the knockout stage, except for a 5-0 loss, which would leave his fate uncertain.
