Gerwyn Price beats Gary Anderson to claim Baltic Sea Darts Open
Gerwyn Price stormed to victory over Gary Anderson to lift the Baltic Sea Darts Open title in Kiel. The 40-year-old Welshman proved unstoppable as he raced to an 8-3 win over his Scottish opponent in the final at the Wunderino Arena. Trailing 2-1, Price won five legs on the trot to establish a 6-2 lead and never looked back from there. He had eased into the final with a 7-3 demolition of Chris Dobey in the semi-finals, but Anderson's passage was even more straightforward as he trounced James Wade 7-1 to book a showdown with the Welshman, who had brushed aside world number one Luke Humphries 6-3 in the last eight. Anderson had served early warning of his form when he averaged 108.03 in his 6-1 quarter-final win over Jonny Clayton, but Price ultimately proved too good.
