Gerwyn Price clinched his fourth World Series of Darts title with victory at the Poland Darts Masters on the weekend.

Price, from Markham, produced a sensational double-double finish to beat Stephen Bunting in the final in Gliwice on Saturday July 5.

The Iceman overturned a 4-2 deficit to win 8-7, and pocket the £30,000 top prize.

Price began his campaign with a 6-3 win over Sebastian Bialecki in the opening round. He then knocked out Chris Dobey in the quarter-finals with a 6-2 win.

A 7-3 semi-final victory over Rob Cross followed, sending Price into the final.

“To go double-double in that final leg with Stephen sat on a double was fantastic. I’m over the moon,” said Price.

“I felt like I was missing opportunities and Stephen was taking advantage.

“I was getting frustrated with myself and to go into the break 4-2 down, I was disappointed, but I stuck in there until the end.”

Despite his success, Price’s start to the tournament was far from ideal – arriving in Poland without his suitcase.

“A couple of years ago I went to Ireland, I lost my suitcase and had to change my darts, change my clothes, change my shoes,” recalled the former world champion.

“I went on and won the Grand Slam and the rest is history.

“I’ve lost my case this weekend, so it’s been new darts, new shoes, new clothes and a new me, so here we go.”

After the final, Price was praised by Bunting, who said: “You cannot give Gezzy opportunities, because he’s absolutely class.

“That double-double finish – I just said to him: ‘that was unbelievable’. It was a great ending to a brilliant game.”
