Wales’ Jonny Clayton could hardly contain his pride after he claimed to have put Pontyberem on the map by being crowned Premier League champion. Clayton beat fellow debutant Jose De Sousa 11-5 in the final on Friday night to claim the biggest prize of his career so far, including a cheque for £250,000. The Ferret, already a World Cup winner and Masters champion, became the first man to win the title from fourth place in the group stage.

Jonny Clayton says he will go into the Ladbrokes UK Open full of confidence after continuing his stunning start to 2021. The Pontyberem thrower is in the form of his life after following up last month’s Ladbrokes Maters success – his first TV title – with a superb four days at the Players Championship.

Despite winning the World Cup for Wales and enjoying his biggest individual career win so far, Pontyberem darts player Jonny Clayton says he plans to hold onto his full-time job for the time being. Having lifted the World Cup of Darts alongside fellow Welshman Gerwyn Price last year, Clayton, continued his remarkable rise by winning his first televised PDC event, the Ladbrokes Masters, last month. The victory saw Clayton pocket the £60,000 top prize and gain entry into the 2021 Premier League – a competition pitting 10 of the world’s best players.

Jonny Clayton admitted he was over the moon after being crowned PDC Ladbrokes Masters champ – and booking his place in the Premier League series. The Pontyberem thrower triumphed in Milton Keynes after fellow Welshman and world champ Gerwyn Price was beaten in the semi-finals.

Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton stormed into the quarter-finals of the Ladbrokes Masters in Milton Keynes. New world champ Price swept past Joe Cullen 10-3 in his first match since his historic title success the title earlier this month.

Jonny Clayton suffered last leg agony to miss out on a place in the last 16 of the World Darts Championship. The Pontyberem thrower fought back from 2-0 down to led 3-2 in the best of seven sets third round battle with Joe Cullen.

Gerwyn Price is targeting being crowned World Champion on January 3 – and taking the spot as world No 1. The Markham marksman is in a three-man battle with Dutchman Michael van PGerwen and reigning Alexandra Palace champ Peter wright for that spot at the top of the PDC Order of Merit.

Jonny Clayton is the first Welshman into the last 32 of the William Hill World Darts Championship. The Pontyberem thrower fended off a comeback from John Henderson to win their second round match 3-1 at London’s Alexandra Palace.

Nick Kenny won six legs in a row to make a stunning William Hill World Darts Championship debut at London’s Alexandra Palace. The 27-year-old from Cwmbran came from 2-1 down in sets to win 3-2 against Dutch darter Derk Telnekes.

Gerwyn Price could face an all Wales clash when he begins his bid for the William Hill World Darts Championship later this month. The No 3 seed has been drawn against either countryman Jamie Lewis or Luke Woodhouse in the second round.

Gerwyn Price cruised into the second round of the Players Championship Finals with a convincing victory over John Henderson. The 35-year-old bold backed from his defeat at the Grand Slam of Darts with a 6-2 win at Coventry’s Ricoh Arena.

Gerwyn Price is determined to bounce back to winning ways by going one better than last year and claiming the Ladbrokes Players Championship Finals crown. The 35-year-old saw his bid for a Grand Slam of Darts hat-trick ended by a last 16 defeat against Nathan Aspinall.
