Teenager Luke Littler overcame Wessel Nijman to win Players Championship 15 – his seventh senior title of the year.
The 17-year-old Englishman recovered from his disappointing first-round exit at the World Matchplay two weeks ago to beat the Dutchman 8-6 in Milton Keynes.
Littler had to beat seven opponents in one day to claim his second Players Championship title.
“I loved the Matchplay, the crowd was unbelievable, I was a bit nervous on stage for the first time,” said Littler, who was knocked out of the World Matchplay by Michael van Gerwen.
“I’ve been chilling out and have not really picked up a dart since the Matchplay. To come here and win is even better.
“I know I have to back myself to win almost everything but I know I can’t do that. But I’d love to win another major this year.”
