Gerwyn Price Claims 10th European Title with Victory Over Ross Smith
Gerwyn Price made history by becoming the second player to win 10 European titles, joining Michael van Gerwen in an exclusive club. He secured the European Darts Grand Prix with an 8-6 win over Ross Smith in Sindelfingen, Germany. The victory marked a moment of heartbreak for Smith, who suffered another defeat in his fourth Euro Tour final. The match was closely contested, with Price taking an early 3-0 lead before Smith leveled at 3-3. The turning point came in the 11th leg, where Price broke Smith's throw to take a 6-5 lead. Price then held his nerve to secure the win, moving ahead of Smith and into the record books. The Welshman acknowledged that both players had tried too hard in the game, but was relieved to have come out on top. Price now looks to build on this momentum as he faces Gian van Veen in the Premier League Darts. In the semifinals, Price defeated Wessel Nijman 7-4, while Smith overcame Krzysztof Ratajski 7-5. The tournament saw several notable upsets, including Nijman's win over Michael van Gerwen and Ratajski's narrow victory over Danny Noppert. The European Darts Grand Prix was filled with exciting matches, and Price's victory marked a significant milestone in his career.
