Defending champion Luke Humphries ended Beau Greaves' historic run at the Czech Darts Open with a 6-2 victory on Saturday night. Greaves had become the first woman ever to win on the European Tour stage on Friday, but Humphries averaged just shy of 109 to book his place in the last 16. Luke Littler also won on his return to the European Tour in Prague, beating Germany's Niko Springer with a stunning 108.59 average.

Michael van Gerwen, Gian van Veen and Gerwyn Price also secured round two wins. However, Stephen Bunting suffered defeat to Luke Woodhouse in the final match of the day. Humphries praised Greaves, saying she pushed him all the way and is a great dart player.

Littler's victory set up a contest with Krzysztof Ratajski, while van Gerwen will now face fellow Dutchman Wessel Nijman in round three. Woodhouse averaged over 105 in his win over Bunting and will take on Danny Noppert next.
