Rob Cross is a two-time European Championship winner after seeing off Michael van Gerwen in the final 11-8 to end a two-year wait for a PDC title.
Cross has shown glimmers of a return to form in the past 12 months but put it together finally to down the Dutchman and defend his money that he won two years ago to prevent a ranking slide.
After winning the title, he was ecstatic to return to the winners' circle after a tough time off the oche saw him return with his best form and he now has the confidence to push on.
"It's nice to win again after the last 18 months, which has probably been the hardest time of my life," said Cross.
"I have to dedicate this to my family, friends, management and sponsors who have stood by me and been incredibly supportive.
"I love playing in Austria, I've got a great record here. I love the people, I'd play here every week if I could.
"Granted, I didn't play my best tonight, and I'm thankful that Michael wasn't himself in the final. You have to take chances when they are presented to you."
"I think this is going to be a turning point for me, with the confidence it's going to give me I know I'm going to get better over the next few months. I would love to win another World Championship," he added.

- 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
