Stompe romp for Woods

12 April 2012

Brian Woods dumped sixth seed Co Stompe out of the Lakeside BDO World Championships to seal a place in the quarter-finals at Frimley Green.

Woods, seeded five places below the Dutchman, sealed a 4-2 win with some impressive form in the closing stages.

The tie was balanced at 2-2 - Stompe impressing with a maximum 170 checkout - until Woods took control to win the next two sets.

Ted Hankey also booked his place in the next round, dispatching Andy Boulton inside 48 minutes to claim a 4-1 win.

Hankey, world champion in 2000, claimed nine of the opening 11 legs to race into a 3-0 lead and closed the match out comfortably despite dropping the fourth set.

Australian Simon Whitlock beat Holland's Fabian Roosenbrand 4-1 in the day's other encounter.

Whitlock and Hankey will play each other in the last eight, while Woods' reward for toppling Stompe is a quarter-final meeting with third seed Scott Waites.

Waites was last on stage on day five and beat unseeded Remco van Eijden 4-2.

Van Eijden missed two doubles to force a deciding set at 3-2 down but his opponent did not make the same mistake and was relieved to clinch the win.
