Van Veen 2-3 Bunting
Stephen Bunting could have been 3-0 down. Now he leads.
He wraps up this leg on double 16. He seems to be beginning to find some rhythm, even if it isn't anything too impressive at the moment.

'There's only one Stephen Bunting' echoes around the arena.
The Bullet once again with plenty of support tonight.
Van Veen 2-2 Bunting
Image source, PA MediaStephen Bunting has got back to level terms and hits a maximum in this leg.
It's still far from perfect from either player. They're both averaging around 80.
Van Veen 2-1 Bunting
This is another very bizarre leg. Neither player seems to remember how to score in it.
Well, that's until near the end of the leg as Gian van Veen hits a 180 to leave 24. Bunting has 70 left.
Bunting has just one dart at double 16... but he pins it.
Van Veen 2-0 Bunting
Image source, PA MediaThat's not ideal from Stephen Bunting, who is still back on 194 as Gian van Veen gets down to 38.
Van Veen misses two at double 16 and Bunting fires in 80 to apply some pressure, but it doesn't matter.
The Dutchman pins double eight with the final dart of his next throw.
Van Veen 1-0 Bunting

BBC Sport Wales at First Direct Arena, Leeds
We've had a fair few wonky opening legs tonight.
Gian van Veen was almost apologetic after winning that one.
Van Veen 1-0 Bunting

Former Premier League champion on Sky Sports
We've seen some scruffy opening legs tonight.
Van Veen 1-0 Bunting
Stephen Bunting dominates much of this one, throwing a 180 in this first leg.
He goes inside on double 12 and outside on double six twice as he throws for the leg, but Gian van Veen isn't down to a finish yet.
Inside on double six before two outside on double three gives Van Veen a chance, but he goes inside as he looks for double 16.
Bunting busts and Van Veen snatches the leg.
Another mediocre opening leg.
Van Veen 0-0 Bunting
Game on!
Van Veen v Bunting
Image source, PA MediaStephen Bunting talking to Sky Sports: "I'm always raring to go when it comes to the Premier League. I've had three really good tournaments now and let's hope Leeds is the start of something big.
"Gian van Veen is a cracking player but it has been a long season already. Hopefully I can capitalise on that. I feel fresh and raring to go.
Van Veen v Bunting
Gian van Veen talking to Sky Sports: "There are only three weeks to go and I'm still massively in the race to get to the O2 so of course there is going to be some extra pressure but I like it. It is better for my game - I perform better when I'm under pressure.
"Stephen [Bunting] is always a tough opponent but last week I started playing well again and there were good signs for me and hopefully I can continue that tonight."
Van Veen v Bunting
Image source, Getty ImagesGian van Veen, who was beaten by Luke Littler in the final of the World Championship, is hunting for a spot in the play-offs in his debut season.
Van Veen is currently just two points off the top four.
He takes on Stephen Bunting, who is currently sitting in seventh, seven points adrift of the play-offs, in the quarter-finals this evening.
Bunting lost to Gerwyn Price in the quarter-finals last week, while Van Veen lost to Luke Humphries in the semi-finals.
Result: Rock 5-6 Humphries

Image source, PA MediaIt was tense, but Luke Humphries just about got over the line in the end, much to the delight of the Leeds crowd.
That victory means Humphries has now won each of his past five matches against Josh Rock.
The Northern Irishman has not beaten Cool Hand since his triumph in the quarter-finals of the Swiss Darts Trophy in September 2024.
Result: Rock 5-6 Humphries
A minimum of two Premier League points for Luke Humphries tonight, then.
That could be a big boost as he searches for a spot at Finals Night.
Rock 5-6 Humphries
Image source, PA MediaThat was nervy at times, but Luke Humphries gets the victory in front of a home crowd.
Treble 20 and double 12 with 84 left is enough to win against Rock.

Luke Humphries has the darts but this has built to a head and how can he maintain his nerves?
Rock 5-5 Humphries
Oh! So nearly a 132 from Josh Rock, with the bull hit twice before he misses double 16.
Luke Humphries then misses darts for the match and Rock levels.
Another decider on the way!
Rock 4-5 Humphries
Luke Humphries nearly takes out 103, but misses a dart at double 12.
Josh Rock has 40 left and takes it out.
Could Rock take this to a decider?
Rock 3-5 Humphries
Rod Studd
Commentator on Sky Sports
It was difficult to be confident that Luke Humphries would hit that from the start, but he did with some style.
Rock 3-5 Humphries
Fantastic set-up play from Josh Rock, who hits 171 to leave double six.
But he misses all three darts at it, letting Luke Humphries back in with 72 remaining.
Treble 16 and double 12 does the business for Humphries and gives him the advantage.
