The darting roadshow continues with the last major to be decided before the World Championships, The Players Championship Finals. Michael van Gerwen capped off another brilliant weekend by winning in Wolverhampton and will be now out to win yet another title for a successive year.
Mighty Mike will start his quest against a former champion in the event in Paul Nicholson who will be making his first appearance in a major for over two years.
