Part sneaks through
08 January 2007
The Canadian overcame Smith, who had recorded wins over Dennis Priestley and Darin Young to reach the last eight, in a deciding leg.
Smith had the chance to clinch victory but he missed two darts at double six and the 'Darth Maple' took advantage to win with a double four.
Peter Manley, the 2003 champion, reached the last four with a 10-8 win over Adrian Lewis at the Mandalay Bay Resort.
However, it was Lewis who started better to race into a 3-0 lead before his world number four-ranked opponent hit back to take seven of the next eight legs.
Although Lewis regained the lead at 8-7, Manley levelled before remaining calm under pressure with a superb final leg where he followed up three 140s with a double-top finish.
