Peter Wright triumphs on opening night of revamped Premier League in Cardiff

Peter Wright made the perfect start to his bid for the Cazoo Premier League title by winning the first round of the revamped competition.

After claiming his second World Championship last month, the Scot made it his 2022 quest to win this competition for the first time and hit the ground running in Cardiff

A round-robin league has been replaced with 16 individual eight-man knockout events,  and Wright beat defending champion and home favourite Jonny Clayton 6-1 in a one-sided final in the first week.
