Michael van Gerwen has handed Glen Durrant a sixth straight defeat as his winless run in this year's Premier League Darts continues.
This was despite an under par display from Van Gerwen who averaged only 87.6 with Durrant not able to pounce on this despite a late flurry.
It was a sluggish start from both but Durrant took the opening leg with a 50 checkout on double 16.
Van Gerwen missed two darts at double 20 for a 60 checkout in the requisite leg but was let off the hook after Durrant missed double 20 for an 80 checkout and made it 1-1 as a result.
He claimed a break on double five to go 2-1 up and despite missing five darts at doubles, he landed the same target to make it 3-1 and move two clear.
MVG missed two darts at double for a 52 checkout before landing double eight to move three clear at 4-1 up. Durrant though wasn't done and clawed the gap back to 4-3 and suddenly looked to potentially trouble MVG.
But this was a mere consolation as a double 18 last dart and a 92 checkout saw him restore his lead to three legs and guarantee himself a point and he assured himself of both from there on.
