Michael van Gerwen has claimed his first win of this year's Premier League Darts in a highly touted tie against Peter Wright but one that didn't deliver quality wise.
Despite that, Van Gerwen coasted to a 7-2 victory with a 92 average as Wright hit 88 in going down to his rival with both players engaging in a war of words as of late but it is 'Mighty Mike' who wins this round on the oche.
Wright had a great start to the tie taking out 83 for an instant break of throw but was unable to consolidate that with Van Gerwen replying to make it 1-1.
Van Gerwen held from there to make it 2-1 despite only averaging 86 and a pivotal moment followed though as Wright missed two darts to break and go 3-2 up.
MVG held and broke himself in the requisite leg to make it 4-2 and Wright didn't claim another leg from there as despite not being at his clinical best, the Green Machine took his chances and punished Wright to romp to a 7-2 win.

- 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
