Price credits fitness regime for magical darting form: “When you feel good physically, you feel good mentally”

Gerwyn Price produced some epic nine-dart magic hitting two in the same night en route to Premier League Darts glory and ‘The Iceman’ puts that down to his fitness regime.

"I put it down to being been back in the gym and looking after myself," explained Price.

"The last two-and-a-half weeks I've been putting some hard work in at the gym; my Personal Trainer has been working me hard.

"When you feel good physically, you feel good mentally and that's why I feel I'm playing my best stuff at the moment.

The former world champion threw his first of two nine-darters in his semi-final against Michael van Gerwen. Price, however, felt there was more to come.

"I felt like I couldn't miss. I told James in the practice room [before the final] I was going to hit another one, I just fancied it tonight.

"But, as well as I played, I could've possibly lost in two games which shows how high the standard is at the moment.

"That's how well I've been playing recently, I'm feeling good in myself."
