Gerwyn Price claimed the Gibraltar Darts Trophy title over the weekend and en route, he saw off Michael van Gerwen as he continued to overturn their Head to Head record.

For Price, he believes the tide has firmly turned in that regard as well as for Van Gerwen’s dominance in the sport.
"It's always nice to get one over on Michael," admitted Price.
"Over the past couple of years he's been the player I've struggled to beat, but nowadays I think the tide is turning a little bit.
"Michael's not as confident as he was a couple of years ago. He's still a fantastic player, one of the best in the world but I think I'm getting on top a bit.
"You have to play well to beat anyone in the top eight, whether that's Michael or someone else.
"If I wasn't on my 'A-game' then he would've beaten me, but I still think I have more in the tank.
"To beat him when he's averaging 105 makes it even better."
