Jose de Sousa and Peter Wright have shared the spoils in a high quality contest which is the penultimate tie of the first half of this year's Premier League Darts.
De Sousa hit an 11-darter in the decider with Wright throwing for the match in a tie which saw the Portuguese ace hit a 101 average and seven 180's a piece between the duo.
Wright claimed a break early on thanks to a 12 darter in the form of an 81 checkout on double 12. He consolidated that pinning double five with his final dart to hold at 3-1 up.
Wright opened up with six perfect darts but lost the leg as De Sousa took out 31 on double eight for a 14 dart hold to make it 3-2.
Following that, he broke back to make it parity at 3-3. 'The Special One' missed two darts at double eight to retake the lead though and Wright made him pay with a brilliant 139 to break and move back ahead.
Both exchanged breaks from there with Wright sat at 5-4 up and he secured a point at 6-4 up on double 12.
De Sousa put pressure on with a 14-dart leg to make it 6-5 with Wright throwing for the win from there or it would be a draw.
It was a draw though as De Sousa sprung an 11-darter in the decider to share the spoils.

- 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
