,[The crowd] They got their money. I think they wanted 15-all, but that last leg, I just had to focus, “he told Sky Sports.
“I was not really nervous. Foot from the leg, Andrew started winning something on the Trott, but in the last leg, against the darts, I had to go on the bus line.
“They performed their share, it is very difficult. Andrew never goes out of the rhythm, he is throwing the same and throwing the same. I just had to find a rhythm to match it.”
Litler “fireworks” in the fourth quarter-finals and will be delivered to rock.
Both 24-year-old (104.02) and value (100.21) were above 100, but it was rock that seized the moment, won three consecutive legs and gained 11-8 and then increased its profit by 13–9.
Price held a rally to make it 13–11, but Rock – who beat three -time champion Michael Van Gerven in Round Two – closed the match in style, won the last three legs and checked out 164 in the final one.
Rock on Sky Sports said, “I am on a cloud nine in minutes. What a game is.”
“I was like this, ‘Josh, you are not doing anything wrong, you are playing your own game, Happy Deleg”. Form Gerwin in, you know what is expected.
“Littler is one of my closest friends behind the curtain. I hope we both change. Hopefully it will be a cracking game.”
The semi -finals will take place on Saturday evening before the meeting with Rock before Little’s meeting with Johnny Clayton of Wales of England.
