Gerwyn Price produced a dominant display to win Players Championship Nine in Leicester.

The former world champion claimed his second win of this season’s series with an 8-4 victory over England’s Ian White.

White, contesting his first ProTour final for five years, knocked out world champion Luke Littler 6-5 in the third round.

But Price, who produced a 114 average in his 7-0 semi-final win against Brendan Dolan, was too strong for the 54-year-old.

Gary Anderson, meanwhile, compiled a nine-dart finish in his first-round match against Krzysztof Ratajski, before losing in the last 32.

Pity he does not get the same glory that English players get from the British media.

Well done Gerwyn Price. Always fighting for Wales. Take note Eluned Morgan & Welsh Labour. Also, I was disgusted when he was racially abused on a Sky sports broadcast during a darts tournament by rival English supporters where they screamed anti-Welsh slurs at him. Although their comments made were censored by the broadcaster, they were not ejected from the auditorium and allowed to continue during the match. Just think if Gerwyn was Jewish. Yes, imagine. Mountains would have been moved and police involved. But hey, it's only us Welsh.
