Gary Anderson has crowned himself the winner of the European Darts Grand Prix. 'The Flying Scotsman' won a Euro Tour title for the second time in his career, as well as his first since 2014.
The two-time world champion immediately showed good form at this tournament on Saturday. With an average of 110.23, he defeated Christian Perez (6-3), before also overcoming Gerwyn Price (6-4). After that, Anderson survived crackers against Josh Rock (6-5) and Rob Cross (7-5).
At the other end of the bracket, Ross Smith surprisingly managed to reach the final. He defeated Luke Woodhouse (6-2), Ritchie Edhouse (6-5) and Damon Heta (6-5) before surviving three matchdarts against Michael van Gerwen in the semifinals.
In the final, Smith took an early 2-0 lead, but a 72 finish brought Anderson back to 2-2. After that, the legs went with the darts for a long time. Smith had a chance to break Anderson in the twelfth leg, but he missed the double 16 for a 7-5 lead.
It became 6-6 after Anderson managed to find the double 6 for a 19-darter, before Anderson did post a break of his own with a stunning 12-darter. The Scot then got to throw for the match, but was only 178 after six visits. Smith, however, fumbled heavily on the doubles and squandered seven chances to force a final leg. With a 24-darter, Anderson then managed to secure the title after all.

- 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

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
