Videos – Thrill! Gerwyn Price throws two(!) 9-darters, Van Gerwen victim | Darts

The Welsh darts player shot a perfect leg during the match with a 9-darter (177-180-144). A week ago, Van Gerwen lost in Liverpool in the semi-finals to Jonny Clayton.

Van Gerwen had started the evening well with a victory (6-3) over Joe Cullen. Against Pryce, the former world champion trailed 4-2, but managed to fight back to 4-4. It also became 5-5, but Pryce, the number 1 in the world, threw the arrows in the decisive leg just a little sharper.

Van Gerwen has won the Premier League five times. The leading professional tournament will be played according to a new format this year. Each round, the darters play a mini-tournament according to a knock-out system, starting with four quarter-finals. The semi-finalists receive two points, the finalist three points and the winner five points.

For Price, his evening could not go wrong. After knocking out Van Gerwen in the semi-final, he faced James Wade in the final. He beat that 6-4, but more spectacular was that he also threw a nine-darter in that game. The game had started cold (it was 1-1) when Price had already hit nine perfect darts in the third leg of the game. Two nine-darters from the same player in one night, a phenomenal and rarely seen feat.
