MICHAEL VAN GERWEN continued his incredible form by winning the Mr Green Sport Players Championship Finals in Minehead for third consecutive year – as Jonny Clayton produced a brilliant run to his maiden TV final in Minhead

Dutch sensation Van Gerwen defeated Welshman Clayton 11-2 in Sunday’s final to secure the £100,000 first prize and add another trophy to his impressive recent collection, having won the European Championship, World Series of Darts finals and Grand Slam of Darts in the last few weeks.

Clayton claimed some terrific victories on a pivotal weekend in his career, as he saw off the likes of Gerwyn Price and Rob Cross en route to his first major final.

The run catapulted the 43-year-old into the world’s top 32 for the first time, making him a seeded player at the upcoming World Championship and puts him in line for a place at next year’s Grand Slam of Darts.
