THROWBACK VIDEO: Wright seals second World title with superb final against Smith at 2021/22 PDC World Darts Championship

Starting tonight, the PDC World Darts Championship sees the showpiece tournament return to the bright lights of Muswell Hill as Peter Wright begins his defense at the Alexandra Palace.

Last time darting action was in North London, Wright sealed a superb final win over Michael Smith for a second World title.

It was a 7-5 triumph for Wright. Smith was up 5-4 in sets and 2-0 in the tenth set, but Wright won nine of the next ten legs.

This led to criticism being levied at Smith as to whether he'd ever get over the line, since then Smith has done and is in the best form to seal a maiden World title.

While Wright due to off the oche issues goes in without match practice and not as the favourite to lift the title. What a difference a year makes.
