Jonny Clayton achieved a first time feat in winning the 2021 Premier League Darts with 'The Ferret' becoming the first player to win the title after finishing fourth in the regular league phase.
Clayton added to Mervyn King in 2009 and Adrian Lewis in 2011 as players who have won the semi-finals after finishing in that spot but neither won it from there.
Now the Welshman is the first and showed the close nature of this year's tournament that Clayton, the eventual winner nearly didn't make it to finals night.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
