Jonny Clayton was a perennial winner during the first iteration of the weekly tournament format in Premier League Darts last season, but hasn't been in such clinical form this time.
But Night Nine in Berlin has seen him back amongst the play-off mix and also in the winners' circle with his first of the season. He saw off Michael van Gerwen (6-5), Gerwyn Price (6-4) and finally Michael Smith (6-4) in the final.

In the final, Smith was clinical to start with two 180's and double 13 but Clayton stormed to three legs on the spin with an 86 checkout break at 2-1 before holding to make it 3-1.
But just as he seemed to have a grasp on the tie, his game went off the boil. Smith hit a 130 checkout on the bull for parity and Smith led 4-3 from there.
Only for missed darts at double to prove fatal for Smith as Clayton stopped the rot and broke to go one away before sealing the deal with a 120 checkout.

- 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
