MAX HOPP moved into the third round of the William Hill World Darts Championship with a straight sets victory over Danny Noppert on Saturday.
Hopp took out 70 in each of the first two legs and went on to take the first set 3-0, punishing Noppert's missed doubles.
That trend continued for the Dutchman despite a brilliant 130 checkout to return Hopp's 12-darter at the start of set two. Hopp continued to capitalise on Noppert's missed double attempts and took the set 3-1.
The German number one went on to take the third set 3-0 to claim an unexpectedly comfortable success.
