Wright sends warning shot after returning to World Number One: "I can use any darts and beat anybody, I don't think they're good enough anymore"

Peter Wright is through to the second round after dodging a late revival from Kim Huybrechts to win through in straight sets at the World Grand Prix and post match, he said he won't be giving any presents out to anyone this year and will taking all of the wins for himself.

"Kim should have won the first set and I told him that backstage. He didn't, I've been there in the past when I give people presents. I've given too many this year. I'm taking it all to myself," said Wright to Online Darts.

"I should be good at this (format) as I used to play in my local league one leg double start. The only time I got my head around it was when I got to the final.

As well as winning through, he returns to World Number One and can only be pushed off if Price wins it and he doesn't reach the final, he sent a warning shot out as a result.

"I was told today that I'm back to World Number One and Gezzy's got to go and win it. The old guy still pushing everyone's button, I didn't know what darts I was using till the last five minutes before I walked on stage. I can use any darts and beat anybody. I don't think they're good enough anymore, Gezzy's probably the second best at the moment but the rest have to go back to the practice board and practice harder."
