Gerwyn Price produced the performance of his life to retain the BoyleSports Grand Slam of Darts title in incredible fashion by defeating Peter Wright 16-6 in Sunday's final.
The Welshman followed up his brilliant maiden career victory over Michael van Gerwen in Sunday afternoon's semi-finals with an unstoppable display to lift the Eric Bristow Trophy once again in Wolverhampton.
Price had never previously defeated Van Gerwen in 18 previous career meetings, but emerged a 16-12 winner in their last four clash to keep his title hopes alive at the Aldersley Leisure Village.

"I'm chuffed to bits," said an emotional Price, who picks up £125,000 as champion plus a £3,500 group winner bonus following a flawless week.
"I knew in the middle of the game that I was playing really well. I was hitting trebles for fun and putting Peter under pressure and he wasn't playing his best.
"I was that I was at the top of my game and I felt comfortable all the way through that game. I'm happy to play the way I did - Peter's a world-class player and for me to win 16-6 is outstanding."

"I'm not used to this but they truly have got behind me and I appreciate it."
