Result: Humphries 4-1 Doets
Image source, PA MediaWorld number two Luke Humphries, speaking to Sky Sports after beating Kevin Doets 4-1 to reach the World Championship quarter-final:
"It was a decent performance from myself, it kind of dropped off towards the end, but when you're 3-1 up, you want a good set to prove yourself and not create any unnecessary drama.
"It was a good game, I thought I played alright up there.
"I feel like I've played well but I feel like that there's another level in me, which is important. If you're going to win this tournament, you have to have another level in you because that won't win you the World Championship.
"In the next round against Gian, it's going to be a fiery game and a great game. I love him to bits and he's such a good player. It's going to have to be one of those games where I bring that and more to beat him, and I'm really looking forward to it."
