The final at the Nordic Darts Masters on Saturday night was between Michael van Gerwen and Fallon Sherrock. The latter benefited earlier in the tournament from a withdrawal of Gerwyn Price.
Sherrock was supposed to play Price in the Quarter-Finals, but the Welshman had to withdraw due to an elbow injury.
The Queen of the Palace then beat Dimitri van den Bergh 11-10 after a sensational comeback, before leading 6-3 in the final against Van Gerwen. However the Dutchman claimed the title with a 11-7 win.
Mighty Mike therefore won his first title of the season. After the final, Price posted a playful comment on Instagram Stories. ''I gifted this to Fallon and Michael... It won't happen every week'', the reigning world champion wrote.
That comment led to criticism from darts fans on social media, after which Price felt it necessary to clarify his response. ''Last post is called humour, #chillout'', sent The Iceman, taking the sting out of his first post.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
