Gerwyn Price produced a scintillating display to overpower Michael van Gerwen in their Premier League Darts clash in the Netherlands, leaving the home crowd stunned.
The Welshman, known for his fiery competitiveness, silenced the Dutch supporters with a clinical 6-3 victory over the local favourite in Rotterdam.
Price Dominates Dutch Soil
From the opening throw, Price looked in formidable form, averaging over 100 and landing crucial doubles under pressure. Van Gerwen, typically dominant on home soil, struggled to match his opponent's consistency as Price raced into a commanding lead.
The three-time world champion did briefly threaten a comeback, reducing the deficit to 4-3 at one stage, but Price responded with back-to-back legs to seal an impressive win.

The Premier League Darts roadshow moves to Leeds next week, where Price will look to build on this momentum against another tough opponent.
