Brendan Dolan has sealed his 10th PDC title after winning Players Championship 10 defeating first-time finalist Jeffrey de Graaf who is now Swedish instead of Dutch.
De Graaf made it to the final by beating Owen Bates (6-4), Mike de Decker (6-5), Matt Campbell (6-5), Thibault Tricole (6-3), Scott Williams (6-5) and Krzysztof Ratajski (7-5) in succession. Dolan won over Robert Grundy (6-2), Franz Roetzsch (6-2), Peter Wright (6-2), Dom Taylor (6-4), Daryl Gurney (6-4) and Graham Hall (7-5).
In the final, Dolan quickly took the initiative. He took the first three legs of the match and then managed to take a 5-2 lead via a 12-darter and an 11-darter. De Graaf closed to 5-4 via two 17-darters, but was unable to equalize. With a fine 12-darter, Dolan brought the margin back to a difference of two legs. The Northern Irishman then threw a 16-darter and a 15-darter to bring the final score to 8-4.
With this final victory, Dolan earned 15,000 significant pounds for the world rankings. He is competing with Daryl Gurney to determine who, along with Josh Rock, could go to the World Cup of Darts on behalf of Northern Ireland. Dolan was a few thousand pounds behind before this tournament, but is now 4,500 pounds ahead of his compatriot.

- And this should be the end of it. He was playing like a w****r and gestured as such. End of.Mysstree25-12-2024
- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024
- Was a great match and am a fan of Scott, don't see much of him on TV. How the hell is Cross 5 in the world, he goes out almost immediately in every competition.richieburnettrocks24-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
