Michael Smith secured his spot at the Unibet European Championship after blitzing past Danny Noppert on Day Two of the 2019 Gibraltar Darts Trophy on Saturday.
Round two saw the 16 seeded players, including world number one Michael van Gerwen, enter the tournament to face Friday's 16 winners.
Smith didn't perform to his usual standard but a 6-1 victory confirms his place in Göttingen in October - see the latest European Championship qualification standings at the bottom of this page.
Kim Huybrechts was the only non-seeded player to reach the third round after a 6-3 win over Jonny Clayton, and in doing so the Belgian kept his European Championship qualification hopes alive.
A win over James Wade tomorrow would see Huybrechts knock Ross Smith out of the 32-man field and claim himself a spot at the event.
Elsewhere, Van Gerwen reeled off five legs on the spin to come from 3-1 down to defeat emerging talent Jose De Sousa 6-3 in a thrilling match which saw De Sousa bust 120 when he led 3-1.
Nathan Aspinall and Ryan Joyce kicked off Round Two with an incredible match which saw every leg won in five visits or fewer. Aspinall averaged 108.14 in a 6-4 victory over fellow-Englishman Joyce who also averaged over a ton.
Gerwyn Price rounded off the evening's action with a 6-0 whitewash over Host Nation Qualifier David Francis.
Peter Wright and Mensur Suljovic both claimed 6-1 victories over Dyson Parody and Wessel Nijman respectively, with Ian White also claiming a spot in the third round with a 6-1 win over Michal Rosenauer.
Joe Cullen ended Ritchie Edhouse's European Championship qualification hopes with a 6-3 victory, while Krzysztof Ratajski defeated Steve Beaton by the same scoreline.
Daryl Gurney shook off the challenge of a resilient Carl Wilkinson to win 6-4, with Wade also securing a spot on Finals Day after defeating Paul Rowley 6-2.
Despite not being at his best, World Matchplay champion Rob Cross ground out a 6-3 win against Poland's Krzysztof Kciuk and Dave Chisnall struck the only break of throw in the final leg of his 6-5 win over Jeffrey de Zwaan.
