Fantastic final. Whitlock played really well but Webster had just too much when it mattered. Incidentally, they both won the same number of legs...

He's the first left hander to win the title since Les Wallace won it in 1997.

It would be great to see Webster v Part in a battle of the champions. They met in the group stage at the Grand Slam of Darts and Part won 5 legs to 4, though Webster had the higher average.
In other news, Wayne Mardle has been confirmed as the wild card for the Premier League.

Yeah, I have a Unicorn one, and I've got a set of Phil Taylor darts. I've been playing for over 3 years now. I haven't joined a team yet but I'm contemplating it.
