PDCThursday, 10 July 2025 at 09:48
Bradley Brooks is the champion at Players Championship 21 with the former World Youth Champion sealing an 8-5 win with a 96 average to seal his maiden PDC senior title.
Brooks has been duly noted as having new darts and has come of age in epic style averaging over 117 yesterday and he has continued that incredible form onto today.
Price missed darts to stay in the contest but in the end Brooks despite averaging less at the end could not be denied as 'The Iceman' could not seal yet another title. He heads into the Baltic Sea Darts Open. Brooks after finding his way back onto the PDC Tour can dream again. An incredible two days capped off with a title.
Brooks in the latter stages saw off James Hurrell, Josh Rock, James Wade, Greg Ritchie among others to seal the title. While he has plenty on the secondary tours, it is a first on the main tour for the Blackburn ace.
Early on in the tie, Price was broken with Brooks hitting double 20 to make it 2-1. Brooks made it 3-1 from there holding throw.
Price hit double 10 to make it 3-2. Brooks left 70 on his throw and hit bull for 4-2.
Brooks missed the bull for 84 to make it 5-2 to break again. Price hit 78 to make it 4-3.
Price missed darts to break and Brooks made it 5-3. Price hit 84 to make it 5-4. Brooks hit 180 and finally pinned 66 sealing it 6-4.
Brooks missed 81 for 7-4 and Price made it 6-5. But Brooks pinned 79 to go one away. Price missed two darts to stay in it and Brooks had a date with destiny and sealed the title in superb fashion. A superb run ends for Brooks.

- Sophie v Paige warranted a final and deserved a longer format, despite the completely shambolic start to the match regarding the scoring which I think unnerved both players, it was an excellent game. Both are outstanding players with great futures in darts. It was a shame such talented players had to meet so early and that Paige is out, she is brilliant and blitzed Sophie in that first set. Fantastic comeback from Sophie, so calm and nonchalant, survived a real scare but hope she becomes World Champion.richieburnettrocks04-12-2025

- Oh fudge off. Who the hell decided Mardull was preferred choice. Just look as its idiotic face. What a talentless waste of space What a travesty when you compare what ITV had. He comes across as a jokey person but it's a class A piece of sheet, miserable as hell and completely full of himself. I don't know anyone who can say anything positive about this goof. Hopefully he'll meet Chris Mason in a dark alley. It really is paving over paradise.richieburnettrocks26-11-2025
- Needs to get the dart tip up when he pulls the dart back and his game will come back.BandB25-11-2025
- Absolutely disgraceful, really I've said many times that ITV coverage is superior to SKY and SKY know that. Jacqui was absolutely fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Emma from SKY is more interested in what to wear than learning about darts. Chris Mason is absolutely the best and greatest commentator on TV, even better than Alex Jacques on F1 and Alex is absolutely brilliant. It is criminal that Chris and Alan will probably never be on TV again, what an amazing waste of talent. Poor Ned, who is just as excellent and knowledgeable on darts as the Tour de France has lost both gigs this year. The whole ITV team from presentation, commentary, production the whole team will definitely be missed and I have enjoyed every minute of their coverage. Thank you so much. John Part is the ONLY decent and knowledgeable person on SKY. I liked Glenn Durrant the player but he is awkward and dreadful on commentary all the rest are utterly useless.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
- Gurney is off form and will completely crack and have a meltdown as the crowd will be relentless, although I think Beau will beat him anyway. I also think Fallon will beat the Helium voiced Chisnall. Poor Gemma has a toughie Peter Wright is also completely off the boil but will probably squeeze past Lisa. Ian White v Mervyn King is an old school classic.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025

- Hate the idea. Darts is loud and exciting without this gimmick format. Golf needs it because it's otherwise boring. Sorry but same applies for royale rumble style knock out.BandB19-11-2025
