Dave Chisnall’s BoyleSports World Grand Prix campaign came to an end with defeat in the last 16 on Thursday night.

The two-time runner-up was beaten 3-1 by UK Open champion Dimitri Van den Bergh as they sought a place in Friday’s quarter-finals.

Chisnall, the sixth seed, seized the early initiative by winning the first set, 3-1, at Leicester’s Mattioli Arena.

That lead was shortlived, however, as Van den Bergh clinched the second set without reply.

A stunning deciding leg in the third set from Van den Bergh saw him hit eight perfect darts on his way to taking a 2-1 lead.

He then wrapped up victory in the fourth set to book a quarter-final against Joe Cullen, who defeated Daryl Gurney 3-2 earlier in the evening.

Two former world champions were also beaten with 3-0 defeats for Gerwyn Price and Gary Anderson.

Price was beaten by James Wade, while Anderson lost to Mike De Decker in the night’s opening match.
