He comprehensively beat Johnny Clayton in the showpiece final, reeling off 11 consecutive legs en-route to a dominating 18-6 triumph, landing a number of sensational checkouts along the way, including a scintillating 170, bullseye finish.

He has since reached four other ranking finals – the 2020 Premier League, 2022 World Grand Prix, 2022 Grand Slam of Darts and, of course, the 2023 World Matchplay.
