Scott Waites had a 156 checkout against Scott Boulton today
Bradford’s Scott Waites lived up to his second seeding today in the British Darts Organisation World Championship.
Last season’s World Masters winner was always in charge during his 3-1 victory over Scott Boulton at Frimley Green.
Waites also had a 156 checkout – the highest at Lakeside so far in 2012.
However, there was no joy for Bradford’s former winner John ‘Boy’ Walton, the seventh seed losing 3-1 to Martin Atkins, while Silsden’s Garry Thompson fell to 12th-seeded debutant Paul Jennings by the same score.
Jennings’ highlight was hitting a bull to move into the lead.
