Jonny Clayton has won week two of the Premier League courtesy of beating Joe Cullen in Thursday's final in Liverpool.
The two players got the 17-week tournament underway in Cardiff last week, but they were the last two standing on the second edition of the 2022 event.
Welshman Clayton followed a 6-3 win over Michael Smith by edging out Gary Anderson by a 6-4 scoreline, while Cullen posted a 6-3 victory over James Wade before winning the last four legs to edge a last-leg thriller with Gerwyn Price.
Clayton was pegged back from 3-1 ahead in the final to 4-4, but he capitalised on missed doubles by his opponent to secure a 6-4 success.
While Peter Wright went into Thursday's action having won week one, the world champion suffered a 6-1 defeat at the hands of Michael van Gerwen in the first match of the night.
As a result of the Scot's early exit, Clayton heads the table by three points ahead of next week's competition in Belfast. body check tags ::
