Michael Van Gerwen has topped the Premier League Darts table for the eighth time in nine years as he heads into the play-offs on Friday night.
Van Gerwen who last year failed to qualify for the top four led the way with 23 points ahead of Jose de Sousa.
Nathan Aspinall himself had a chance to finish top but lost out to De Sousa in their final game which enabled the Portuguese ace to finish second. They will now face off in the semi-finals tonight.
As will Van Gerwen and Jonny Clayton with ‘The Ferret’ leaving it late but he saw off Dimitri Van den Bergh in their crunch clash to secure his spot. As a result, the latter Belgian finishes fifth and ahead of James Wade, Peter Wright and Gary Anderson with the higher the rank, the more prize money on offer.

- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
