Daryl Gurney has won his second televised title in as many years with a brilliant win over Michael van Gerwen at the Players Championship Finals in Minehead.
Gurney grabbed the top prize of £100,000 as a result and denied Van Gerwen another title.
The game surprisingly was evenly matched throughout proceedings. This was until MVG went 7-6 up and it looked like he was going to win.
Gurney though hit back to make it 8-7 with a brilliant sixty four finish on D16.
They then both jostled for position until Gurney made it 10-9 then claimed the title from there.
It caps off a brilliant weekend for ‘Superchin’ who has finally got one over Van Gerwen after a poor record previously.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
