Jonny Clayton has continued his strong start to his Premier League Darts campaign and has moved onto seven points from five games after seeing off Gary Anderson.

It was a 7-4 victory for Clayton with a 99 average and six 180's as 'The Ferret' continues his brilliant form once more.

Clayton doubled his lead in the early going with an 86 checkout on double eight and had the chance for 3-0 but squandered two darts at double 20.

Despite that, he restored his two leg lead from there and did so once more at 4-2 up but Anderson potentially produced a pivotal moment from there as Clayton missed six darts at double 18 and Anderson claimed a break back to level at 4-4.

'The Ferret' responded in kind reclaiming his break with an 11-darter on double 16 to make it 5-4 and consolidated that with a hold but only after Anderson missed two darts to level.

The prior break back proved the catalyst as Clayton got over the line from there to claim another win in this year's Premier League.
