Chris Dobey finally claimed his maiden PDC ranking title at Players Championship 18 (PDC Super Series 5) defeating Jose de Sousa in a dramatic final in Coventry.
Dobey survived eight match darts in what was his fifth chance at claiming a maiden title but the luck was in for 'Hollywood' who summed up his emotions at finally getting over the line.
"To finally get a title means the world," said Dobey. "I'm happy with today - I've played solid all day.
"I've played in local competitions and last-leg deciders have been my game, and I've proven it today. I was down and out against Willie Borland, same against Stephen Bunting.
"I don't think I've ever lost against Jose - I've got a great record.
"I've never been so nervous in my life going for those doubles [at the end of the final]. They weren't far away but he missed doubles, he probably should have won but I've done it now.
"I've had the experience of being in finals before but I haven't got over that winning line. I've said for a long time now that once I get that first one then hopefully I can get some more under my belt."
