Jenson Walker secured the title on Saturday night during the second week of play of the tenth season in the MODUS Super Series. The 18-year-old darter proved the best during the final night in Portsmouth.
The six best players from the past week met Saturday on finals night. Walker lost his first group match against Jamie Hughes (4-1), but advanced to the semifinals as number two thanks to his 4-3 victory over Andy Hamilton.
Hughes finished first in that group, while Simon Whitlock and Adam Mould advanced to the final four from the other group. Walker then won in the semifinals 4-3 too strong for Simon Whitlock, while Mould took the win against Jamie Hughes. In the final, Walker then triumphed 4-2 against Mould.
The MODUS Super Series is a weekly tournament with 12 players competing from Monday through Friday for a spot in the final group, which takes place on Saturday night. A week of play begins with six players competing in Group A. They play against each other once each on the first three days of play. The winner of this group is directly through to finals night.
The numbers two and three will enter Group B with three new players. They will play each other on Thursday and Friday, after which the top three of this group may also prepare to participate in the final night. The numbers four, five and six from Group A advance to Group C, where they too will be joined by three other players. Two more players from this group will advance to the final night.
The final night is played on Saturday night starting at 10 p.m. where players compete in a small group stage with two groups of three players, followed by semi-finals and a final to determine the weekly winner. After twelve weeks of competition, all the weekly winners compete in "Champions Week," which is played every thirteen weeks of play to determine who wins the series and takes home the top prize of 25,000 pounds.
