Peter Wright believes his Machineseeker European Championship triumph can provide the springboard for a strong end to the 2023 season, following his return to winning ways in Germany.

Wright defeated James Wade 11-6 in Sunday’s Dortmund decider to clinch his second European Championship title, having also beaten the left-hander to secure his maiden victory in 2020.

The Scottish star produced a series of superb displays at the Westfalenhalle to win his eighth Premier televised title, joining Phil Taylor, Michael van Gerwen and Rob Cross in becoming a multiple European Champion.

Wright began his campaign by recovering from 4-1 down to deny German number one Gabriel Clemens on Thursday’s opening night, before dispatching world number one Michael Smith 10-4 in round two.

The 53-year-old then won through gruelling encounters against Masters champion Chris Dobey and Dutch number two Danny Noppert, before toppling a tenacious Wade to claim the £120, 000 top prize.

“The old guy can still do it, ” quipped Wright, who joins Michael van Gerwen, Phil Taylor and Rob Cross in becoming a multiple European Champion.

“I was fortunate in my first game against Gabriel Clemens. I pulled out two 180s to get back in the match, but it was just brilliant to play in front of this amazing crowd this weekend.

“My throwing action went totally out the window in the last two matches. I didn’t know what I was doing, but luckily enough I got over the line.”

Wright was the early aggressor in Sunday’s decider, establishing a narrow 3-2 advantage at the first interval despite 157 and 96 checkouts from Wade.

Back-to-back 13-dart legs then catapulted Wright into a 6-2 cushion, and while Wade responded with consecutive legs, the Scot returned the favour to restore his four-leg buffer.

The two-time World Cup winner then fired in successive 14-darters to move to the cusp of glory at 10-5, only to squander three match darts in leg 16 as Wade sank a 13-darter on tops to prolong the contest.

However, Wright quashed any fears of a famous fightback in the following leg, converting a clinical 96 checkout to clinch his third title of 2023, which sees him regain second spot on the PDC Order of Merit.

Wade, a European Champion in 2018, was appearing in his first televised ranking final since his UK Open triumph in March 2021, following a string of spirited displays in Dortmund.

The left-hander, who saw off Dirk van Duijvenbode and Jose de Sousa earlier in the event, landed three ton-plus finishes to record a superb 10-6 victory over second seed Luke Humphries in the last eight.

Wade then fought back brilliantly from 5-1 down to edge out Dutch youngster Gian van Veen in the semi-finals, running out an 11-9 winner to secure an instant return to the world’s top 16.

“I played a man who was better than me, ” reflected Wade, who also confirmed his place at next month’s Mr Vegas Grand Slam of Darts after scooping the £60, 000 runner-up prize.

“I’m gutted [with the result], but I’ve not been very good for the last 14 months, so this is a step in the right direction.

“I’ve been fortunate today because a few of the players didn’t play as well as they can, but for me this is a massive building block, and I’m moving forwards again.”

Earlier in the day, debutant Van Veen dumped out four-time champion Van Gerwen in the quarter-finals, punishing a below-par display from his compatriot to secure the biggest win of his career.

In the other quarter-final tie, Noppert produced a monumental fightback from 7-0 down to stun Gerwyn Price, winning ten of the last 11 legs to prevail with a 101 average and seven maximums.

Ricardo Pietreczko produced a flawless display of finishing to win the German Darts Championship in Hildesheim on Sunday with an astonishing 8-4 win over Peter Wright in the final.

The 28-year-old stunned World Champions Wright and Michael van Gerwen in Sunday night's final stages to claim his first ranking title in incredible fashion.

Pietreczko's success sees him become only the second German to win a European Tour title, emulating Max Hopp's 2018 achievement, while he also scoops £30, 000 in prize money and claims a spot in November's Grand Slam of Darts.

He had begun the event in Friday's first round, battling through six matches to claim the title - hitting a perfect eight doubles from as many attempts in the final.

Pietreckzo also finished seven doubles from nine attempts in his semi-final with Van Gerwen, which he won with a ten-darter in the deciding leg.

"I have no words for this!" smiled Pietreczko, who had dropped to his knees celebrating the triumph.

"I've often dreamed of standing on that stage winning a title but to see it actually coming true is unbelievable.

"I didn't realise that I didn't miss a dart at a double [in the final], I was just so happy in the moment to have hit them.

"It was incredible to play in Hildesheim, I absolutely love it here.

"I know I can beat the best in the world and I try my very best to beat the best in the world. I'm over the moon, very happy to be in the Grand Slam."

Pietreczko had defeated Mickey Mansell in Friday's first round and averaged over 107 against fellow German Martin Schindler to book a spot in Sunday's latter stages.

He proved too strong for George Killington in the last 16 and then saw off Stephen Bunting 6-4 in a quarter-final tie where both players averaged over 100.

Pietreczko found the performance of his career against Van Gerwen in the semi-finals, averaging over 99 and finishing seven doubles from just nine attempts to delight the Halle 39 crowd.

He took out 104 to win the opening leg, landed an 11-darter to lead 3-2 and then moved to the brink of victory at 6-3.

Van Gerwen showed his class to level the game with three straight legs, punishing his opponent for failing to leave a double when needing 80 and 92 in two of those, only for Pietreczko to regain his composure in the decider, scoring 140, 180 and 145 before pinning double 18 for a ten-darter.

He won the final's opening four legs without reply, taking out 102 and a 13-darter, before responding to Wright's first leg with a 116 checkout to lead 5-1.

Wright took out a 13-darter and a 126 bull finish as well as double ten as he claimed three of the next five legs, but Pietreczko followed up checkouts of 74 and 108 with a 104 combination to secure the title.

Wright had begun his challenge on Saturday by defeating Masters champion Chris Dobey 6-2, and then overcame German prospect Nico Kurz 6-3 in Sunday afternoon's third round.

He finished six doubles from nine attempts in a clinical 6-4 quarter-final win over Damon Heta, and then produced his best display of the event to see off Luke Humphries 7-5 in the semis.

Wright opened with an 11-darter and led 3-0 before Humphries took out an 11-dart leg of his own to get off the mark and bullseye finishes of 135 and 84 as he pulled back to 4-3.

Crucially, Wright edged clear with another 11-darter, and though Humphries finished 84 again and landed a 13-dart leg to reduce the deficit to 6-5, the Scot wrapped up victory in 12 darts with a 116 checkout.

However, Wright fell one game short of claiming a ninth European Tour success, admitting: "It wasn't there in the final, I couldn't push him but fair play, he beat some fantastic players all the way through the tournament.

"I've played him before and he beat me up last time, I know how he can play. He's a fantastic player and it's great for darts."

Van Gerwen had won through a deciding leg twice earlier on Sunday in his bid to win a 37th European Tour title, edging past Joe Cullen and Gabriel Clemens before seeing Pietreczko claim their semi-final in dramatic fashion.

Humphries was bidding to follow up last week's BoyleSports World Grand Prix triumph with a second European Tour title of the year and a sixth in total.

The new world number four was outstanding with a 111.33 average in a third round whitewash of James Wade on Sunday afternoon, and he then missed double 12 for a nine-darter in a brilliant performance against Rob Cross in the quarter-finals.

Germany's Clemens saw off European Champion Ross Smith in the third round as he won through to the last eight, while Cross edged out World Champion Michael Smith in a deciding leg in the last 16.

Following the conclusion of the 2023 PDC European Tour season, the top 32 players from the final European Tour Order of Merit now progress to play in the Machineseeker European Championship from October 26-29 in Dortmund.

Luke Humphries produced the performance of his career to claim BoyleSports World Grand Prix glory in Leicester on Sunday, overcoming Gerwyn Price 5-2 in a thrilling final.

Former World Youth Champion Humphries, 28, claimed his first televised ranking title and £120, 000 with the triumph, and also moves above Price to a career-high fourth on the PDC Order of Merit.

Price had been bidding to win his second World Grand Prix title as he competed in a third final in four years - and made a brilliant start to win the first set without reply.

Humphries, though, took nine of the next 11 legs in a three-set burst which turned the game on its head and moved him 3-1 up at Leicester's Morningside Arena.

Price defied a 170 from Humphries to hit back by winning the fifth set in a decider, but the next two went to the Englishman as he went on to seal a memorable triumph with a sensational 138 checkout.

"I've imagined this moment for my whole career - it's very emotional, " admitted Humphries, who averaged 93.30 in the double-start format in the final.

"Regardless of anything else I've done in my career, that was the greatest game I've ever played in my life.

"That 138 is probably one of the best shots I've ever seen in my career, let alone [to win] the title. If I didn't hit that, we go off to the break and Gezzy feels that he's back in the game.

"I couldn't have picked a better ending for my first major title. I think a lot of people wrote me off tonight, they thought Gezzy would steamroll me, but I've got a bit of bottle about me, I have got the ability to play well.

"As much as I played well, that was a great final and I think Gezzy played his part there. He was a massive part of such a great game and credit goes to him."

Price punished some nervy starting doubles from Humphries in set one, taking the set without reply, before a sparkling 12-darter - which featured just ten scoring darts - saw the Englishman get off the mark in set two.

Humphries took the set 3-1 and matched that score in set three, despite an 11-darter from Price, before taking the fourth without reply to move 3-1 up in the match.

Humphries opened the fifth with a rousing 170 checkout, but Price responded with a 117 checkout and punished misses from his rival to claim the set in a decider to hit back.

The sixth set also went to a deciding leg, with the pair trading 180s before Humphries pinned double eight to move 4-2 up and close in on glory.

Price led 1-0 and 2-1 in the seventh set, but Humphries levelled and then took out an unforgettable 138 checkout to seal the title.

Humphries had lost in the 2021 UK Open final, but has made sustained progress up the rankings since - producing a string of successes on the European Tour to consolidate his stage experience.

"I said [after the semi-finals] that we will see what Luke Humphries is made of tomorrow; whether I've got or I ain't - and I think I proved now to myself that I have got it, " he added.

"Sometimes in my career, my Achilles heel has been my doubles and it's quite funny that the major championship I pick up is the double start!

"I think this is the first in a lot [of titles] that will come over the years, but we're in an era where there's so many great players and these are hard to come by.

"I dedicate this to my dad, because without him I wouldn't be here right now. It's been 13, 14 years since I first picked up a dart and now I'm a major champion.

"I've worked extremely hard in the last few years, lost a lot of weight, battled many things in my head to get to this point and it makes it all worth it having this trophy."

Price averaged 91 in reply to Humphries, and the Welshman hit half of his attempts at a starting double and 52% of his finishing doubles as he fought bravely to regain the coveted trophy.

However, the Welshman admitted: "I'm absolutely gutted.

"I didn't help myself early on. Luke played fantastic and he's a worthy winner. I think I played better than him tonight, he just played really well at the right times.

"Fair play to Luke, he deserves the win."

Van Gerwen stormed to victory in the Dutch capital with a comprehensive 11-4 success against World Matchplay champion Nathan Aspinall, winning eight of the last ten legs to triumph.

The Dutchman also made history by landing a sensational nine-darter in his semi-final win over Luke Humphries, achieving the first perfect leg at the World Series Finals, and the first in a PDC televised event in the Netherlands.

This was preceded by a 103 average in his quarter-final thriller against Dimitri Van den Bergh, and he maintained that imperious form to pocket the £75, 000 top prize on a memorable night at AFAS Live.

“It was a tough weekend, but I think I deserved it, ” insisted Van Gerwen, who also won the World Series Finals in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019.

“You always want to perform well, and to win a title in front of your home crowd, it gives you extra joy.

“I think the biggest challenge for me was the pressure of playing in front of the home crowd, but they have been absolutely fantastic this weekend.

“Even Luke Humphries after our semi-final said that the crowd were phenomenal, and you can only be proud of that.”
