Kim Huybrechts immediately retires from UK Open darts after an eventful run-up, Mike De Decker and Dimitri Van den Bergh continue

Huybrechts was punished in the run-up to the tournament after complaints from Dimitri Van den Bergh and Mike De Decker. A video subsequently emerged of him punching De Decker in a parking lot, one of the facts that led to the complaint.

Mike De Decker qualified for the next round after a 10-6 win against Richard Veenstra. De Decker had earlier eliminated Wessel Nijman 6-3.

Dimitri Van den Bergh also won in his match against Northern Irishman Brendan Dolan with 8-10.

In the fifth round, De Decker will face Ricky Evans and Dimitri Van den Bergh will face Vincent Van der Voort.
