Clayton Impressed by Littler's Composure in Hostile Rotterdam Crowd

Jonny Clayton praised Luke Littler's ability to remain unfazed by the hostile crowd in Rotterdam, as Clayton secured his second consecutive nightly win in the Premier League. Clayton's fourth nightly win of the campaign extended his lead at the top of the table to five points, following his third win against world champion Littler this year. The Welshman overcame home favorite Michael van Gerwen, Josh Rock, and Littler to claim victory at the Rotterdam Ahoy, bringing his points tally to 29 in just 11 weeks. Clayton initially trailed 2-0 but rallied to take the lead, later securing a clutch 78 outshot to move within one leg of victory. Despite Littler's attempt at a comeback, Clayton capitalized on his opponent's inconsistent finishing to take the win. Littler bolstered his chances of a Play-Off spot by reaching his fourth final in seven weeks, moving up to 24 points in the standings. The Premier League continues, with the top four players set to progress to Finals Night at The O2 in London on May 28.
