Gerwyn Price will aim to claim a hat trick of
Grand Slam of Darts titles when he begins his campaign tonight.
Price has taken over as the favourite with the title bookmakers BoyleSports and admits that he is glad to be recognised as such and hopes to put in a befitting display.
“I’m in some good form off the back of winning the World Grand Prix and World Cup. Hopefully I can have another good run here, I'm looking forward to it,” said Price.
“I like the favourite tag. It gives you a little boost and a bit of extra confidence. It shows that not only am I confident, but other people are confident in my ability as well.
“Hopefully I can go out and play like a favourite.
“To win three in a row is something that has only been achieved by Phil and Michael so it would be nice to make a bit of history and join them.”
