Josh Rock claims there is still "more to come" from the 21-year-old after his whitewash victory over Callan Rydz in the PDC World Darts Championship.
After an impressive debut on Saturday, Josh Rock made light work of Rydz in a comfortable 3-0 victory to move into the third round of the PDC World Darts Championships.
The hype around Rock going into this tournament has been huge. Despite only making his second ever appearance in the world championships, Josh Rock is one of the favourites for the tournament.
So far, he has shown exactly why. It only took him 20 minutes to get past Rydz. The scary part for the rest of the players is he admitted he doesn't believe he's played near his best.

I'm happy with the win, but Callan didn't play his game, and I still haven't played mine yet at this stage. I know there's more to come from Josh Rock.
When you stand up on that stage there's different pressure on you and you have to learn to deal with it. But at the same time, Callan didn't play his game, and I didn't play my game.
Of course I'm loving it, but I just need to learn to hit doubles quicker. I'll spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my family. I know I fly out on boxing day but I'll be prepared for it."
Comfortable Win For Josh Rock
While it may have been a tight first set to start the game, it was Rock who would claim it after finishing with a double four.
It was in the second set where he completely took control of the game as both players started in entertaining fashion with 180s to start the set. Despite Josh Rock missing chances, Rydz wasn't clinical enough and gave Rock the second set.
The third set was another story of woeful finishing as Josh Rock claimed it 3-1 to seal the match and set up an exciting clash against Nathan Aspinall.
