Gerwyn Price ends TV title drought at the Nordic Darts Masters

Gerwyn Price ended a near two-year wait for a televised singles title with victory at the Nordic Darts Masters in Copenhagen on Saturday.

Price, whose most recent triumph came at the World Series Finals in September 2022, avenged his defeat to Rob Cross in last week’s US Masters final by sealing an 8-5 success in their rematch in the Danish capital.

Following his First Round demolition of Madars Razma on Friday, Price powered past Dimitri Van den Bergh, Michael Smith and Cross on Saturday to clinch the £20,000 top prize.

The 39-year-old averaged 105 in a 6-1 rout of 2022 champion Van den Bergh in the quarter-finals, and he punished an out of sorts display from Smith in a scrappy semi-final.

Price was the dominant force in the opening stages of the final, capitalising on a sluggish start from Cross to establish a commanding 4-0 lead.

Cross halted Price’s charge with a magnificent 170 checkout in leg five, and that sparked a resurgence from the 2018 World Champion, who recovered to reduce the deficit to 5-4.

Price hit back with legs of 11 and 12-darts to move a leg away from glory, and after Cross missed double 16 for a 108 skin-saver, the 2021 World Champion wrapped up proceedings on double two.

“I’m chuffed to bits,” admitted Price. “I’ve been struggling to get over the winning line, but you need a bit of luck sometimes and I haven’t had much luck over the last couple of months.

“I had a little bit of luck in the semi-finals against Michael Smith who didn’t capitalise on a poor game from me, but I’m just glad to win a final and get another trophy in the bank.

“I will push on from here. My game is in a good place, and I’m ready for the big tournaments coming up.”

Cross fell narrowly short in his bid for back-to-back World Series titles, but it was another positive weekend for the 33-year-old, who recorded a trio of ton-plus averages in reaching the final.

He created history in Friday’s opening round, producing a 108.2 average in his win over Jeffrey de Graaf – a new tournament record at the Nordic Darts Masters.

The 2018 World Champion then averaged 102 an emphatic 6-2 win against Stephen Bunting in the quarter-finals, before defeating World Champion Luke Humphries in the semi-finals for the second time in the space of seven days.

“I’m happy for Gezzy,” said Cross. “He plays well every week and he deserves that. That win will pick him up.

“It wasn’t meant to be tonight, but I’m pleased with my game and I’ve got a lot to look forward to.”

Humphries followed up his opening round whitewash of Benjamin Drue Reus with a 6-1 thrashing of Sweden’s Johan Engstrom, only to succumb to Cross once again.

Smith dumped out World Matchplay champion Nathan Aspinall in the quarter-finals, defying a nine-point disparity in the averages in a match dominated by missed doubles.
