Cardiff erupts whenever Gerwyn Price walks to the oche and the two thousand twenty five edition of the BetMGM Premier League is no exception.

The former world champion returns to the Utilita Arena on March twenty for Night Seven with momentum finally swinging his way after a nine dart masterpiece in Manchester earlier this month.

That perfect leg made him the outright leader for televised nine darters in Premier League history and reminded the pack that the Iceman still carries volcanic scoring power…

Price has already banked two nightly crowns this season defeating Luke Humphries in Dublin and Littler in Liverpool to climb to twenty two points. Victory on home soil would vault him past Humphries and close the gap on runaway leader Littler.

The Welshman opens against Rob Cross a repeat of last year’s Cardiff quarter final which Price edged on route to the final. “I feel under more pressure here than anywhere,” he admitted, “but I would not swap that for the world because this crowd gives me wings.”

Stats back the confidence. Price averages ninety nine point eight across the season and tops the competition for highest checkout success at forty nine percent.

His double sixteen radar in particular has been ruthless landing at a season high sixty three percent.

Should he progress the path gets no easier. Van Gerwen or Humphries wait in the semi finals with Littler potentially lurking in the final.

Yet Price insists the quest for league points cannot distract him from the bigger picture of lifting the trophy at the O two in May. “If I win in Cardiff I am right back in the title hunt and that is all that matters,” he declared. Welsh fans have heard those words before and they seldom end in disappointment.
