Jonny Clayton is the first player through to the semi-finals at the Players Championship Finals after a resounding success over Callan Rydz 10-3 to start proceedings on Sunday afternoon in Minehead.
Clayton, who previously was the runner-up back in 2017 hasn't had the best year since finishing top of the Premier League before the play-offs but will look to turn the corner at the right time this weekend.
It was a dream start for Clayton which Rydz struggled to recover from, he punished two missed darts at doubles to break and head into a 4-0 lead. Finally opening his account to break back, he hit a 102 checkout to go 4-1 down and consolidated but the three leg buffer was restored with a 102 checkout to go 5-2 up.
More opportunities were punished from there with Clayton's average creeping towards 101 and his lead heading to 8-2 with another break. It was a scrappy end in which Clayton hit double one in the end to close out the tie for a 22-darter but nonetheless he is through.

- 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
