MICHAEL VAN GERWEN clinched victory at the Austrian Darts Open with a final triumph over Ian White in Graz on Sunday.

Having whitewashed Steve Lennon in Saturday’s second round, the Dutchman reached the decider with wins over Stephen Bunting, Peter Wright and Daryl Gurney.

“It’s the first time I’ve played here and I wanted to win so I’m really glad I did,” said Van Gerwen, who has now won 25 deciding legs in a row on the European Tour since 2014.

“Ian was phenomenal and he pushed me to the end. What more can you want, winning the title in a good game and with a good crowd – that makes darts.”
