Gerwyn Price dominates Michael Van Gerwen for third Premier League win

Gerwyn Price stormed to his third Premier League darts victory of the season with a dominant 6-1 victory against Michael van Gerwen in Newcastle.

After cruising past Jonny Clayton in the quarter-final, the Iceman defeated Chris Dobey 6-4 in the semi-final, despite the Newcastle native threatening a comeback in the later legs.

Van Gerwen reached the final despite a rocky start against Peter Wright, which saw the pair play out an entertaining tussle but ended with the Dutchman winning 6-5.

A 6-0 win against Nathan Aspinall in the semi-finals then set up a final against the Welshman, but Van Gerwen was blown away in a dominant display from Price that saw him average 114.96 and only drop one leg throughout the game.

Price said: "I knew what I was up against there, it was going to be tough against Chris there in the semi-finals but I knew if I could scrape through that one and put in a good performance against Michael, which I did.

"I'm a little disappointed that I lost that leg, I slipped up in only one or two pitches and it cost me, but glad I played really well and glad I got another win on the board.
