Price on Clayton clash in World Grand Prix final: "It's gonna be a tough one but if I'm gonna lose, I couldn't lose to a better player"

Gerwyn Price is into the final of the World Grand Prix after coming from behind to see off Stephen Bunting and book his place.

Price spoke afterwards and lamented his early from which saw him go two sets down against 'The Bullet' and he looked to be fading fast.

"I struggled early on two sets I was absolutely rubbish. I couldn't hit anything, I couldn't get off, it was the worst game ever. But I dug deep, got it back to 2-2 and thought I'm back in with a chance here and the third set, the last leg decider was the pinnacle of the game. Whoever won that leg I think went on and won the match," he said post match.

Going off stage and Clayton clash

A lot was made about Price going off stage and when asked if there was any danger of him not coming out he said.

"I just had to chill out a little bit and the arm was a little bit achy but I just iced myself down and just come out and things started to get a bit better.

Next up will be Jonny Clayton in the final and of course the respect is there as close friends and it is very much the best man wins on the night.

"If he's playing as well as he has all tournament then I'm gonna have to really up my game and be on top of my game. It's gonna be a tough one but if I'm gonna lose, I couldn't lose to a better player."
