Eyes will be on Gerwyn Price and Gary Anderson Wednesday night as they compete for a spot in the quarterfinals of the Grand Slam of Darts in Wolverhampton.
It's a repeat of the 2018 Grand Slam of Darts final. A final that went into the history books as one of the most heated darts matches ever. Meanwhile, the relationship between the Welshman and the Scot has normalized a bit more. Moreover, both players are also in top form.

Price posted averages of 110 and 112 in the pool stage, while Anderson delivered a strong third pool match and took three Players Championship titles to his name this year. Moreover, Anderson won all of his clashes with Price this year, and 'The Flying Scotsman' leads 12-11 in the overall balance.
However, the two-time world champion realizes that he has a leaden task ahead of him to beat 'The Iceman' again. “Gezzy is playing proper darts," admitted Anderson. "I think my best average so far is 102, so I need to go up about eight points and he needs to come down! Hopefully it will be a cracker, but you know what these games are like when you give it the big build-up!”
By reaching the last sixteen, Anderson has at least kept his impressive streak alive. Never before has he dropped out in the group stage of the Grand Slam of Darts. He reached the final there in 2011 and 2018, but is yet to take overall victory.
“This has always been my favourite tournament,” said 'The Flying Scotsman'. “I’m not putting any pressure on myself, but imagine winning it after 16 years! I would love to have that trophy on the mantelpiece. My game is still there, and the way I’m playing, I believe I can beat anybody. It just depends which Gary turns up!”

- 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
- Covid or Vaccine victim?Mysstree03-11-2024
- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
