Michael van Gerwen has recorded a 7-1 win over James Wade to move back to the top of the Premier League table.
The world number one was in ruthless form in Birmingham as he thrashed the left-hander to edge ahead of Phil Taylor on leg difference after his rival lost 7-4 to Peter Wright in the opening game of the evening.
Wright returned at the end of the night to secure a 6-6 draw with Gary Anderson to remain in contention for a top-four position at the end of the league phase.
Anderson enjoyed his night in the West Midlands, with his earlier 7-5 triumph over Raymond van Barneveld keeping him in third place in the standings.
Adrian Lewis sits one point adrift in fourth spot after a comfortable 7-2 win against Robert Thornton.
