Peter Wright gutted by Premier League darts hometown hammering but makes bullish top four prediction
Peter Wright admits he was gutted at letting down his home crowd in Scotland. Snakebite was shattered after failing to take advantage of a below-par Michael van Gerwen and losing 6-2 at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro.
Wright missed 17 darts at doubles to allow the Dutchman off the hook. The 53-year-old was irritated at his failure to deliver for the 11,000 passionate home fans who chanted his name and backed his bid.
Wright said: “I was gutted I let them down. Even at 5-1 down I was thinking: Michael is not on it, still I could win this game.
I couldn’t even punish him. It was one of those games. Annoying. You see them on TV and you see the players and think: Oh he’s playing rubbish and you step up.
