Wright eases past Razma to win PDC Autumn Series Day One title

Peter Wright has claimed the opening day of action in the PDC Autumn Series easing past Madars Razma in an 8-1 win.

Wright has claimed the £10,000 title and a third of the season after victories in both Wigan and on the PDC Summer Series.

For Razma, it was a second PDC ranking final but one where he didn't show his best darts and as a result, his wait continues for a first title.

Wright began the final with a bang going 4-0 in front which included successive 65 finishes to steal an early march on the second time finalist.

Razma got himself off the mark after being 4-0 down to make it 4-1 hitting a 113 checkout but Wright got ever closer to the winning line at 5-1.

A break in the form of a 78 checkout saw him go within two. A 70 and 97 checkout saw him conclude proceedings and produce a stunning start to the PDC Autumn Series for the World Champion.
