WHAT A PERFORMANCE! As soon as he changed his darts, Wright became a new player there! The World Champion averages 106.80 as he despatches Ian White 5-3... #BoyleSportsGSOD
Wright believes Van Gerwen has 'no chance' at World Championship

Peter Wright claimed his first win of the Grand Slam of Darts defeating Ian White with a 106 average after previously losing out to Dirk van Duijvenbode.
Wright admitted he was lucky to even get legs against Van Duijvenbode and he also discussed changing darts again for this tournament.
"Yesterday I was just rubbish and Dirk (van Duijvenbode) trounced all over me and I was lucky to get four legs to be honest. I switched to longer points for the Winter Series and they worked but they didn't work on stage yesterday. It felt like they were miles away, the darts weren't reaching the board," said Wright during post match media.
With the World Championship on the horizon, talk turned to that and for Wright, he believes that Van Gerwen has 'no chance' and that Gerwyn Price is the only one who can threaten him in his title defence.
"I'm not far away (from) being really happy. Depends where the venue is, depends if it's at Ally Pally. To be honest Gezzy would be the only one to threaten me in the tournament. He's got no chance."

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- 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
