Highlights from the evening session on day three of the World Championship at Alexandra Palace which saw Gary Anderson and Simon Whitlock in action.

The eighth seed, who is yet to progress past the last 16, has been handed a first-round meeting with Holland’s Ryan De Vreede.

Kim Huybrechts (18) and Ian White (15) will also be hoping to secure their progress in the later matches.

The afternoon session is opened by Paul Nicholson’s clash against young Dutchman Benito van de Pas.

Nicholson, a Newcastle-based Australian, will be keen to erase memories of his second-round loss against Robert Thornton.
