Wade's Wembley Wonder! - 25 May 2009

JAMES WADE claimed the 2009 Whyte & Mackay Premier League Darts with a 13-8 victory over Mervyn King at the Wembley Arena on Monday night - as Phil Taylor's reign in the event was sensationally ended.

Taylor had won all four previous Premier Leagues and was an odds-on favourite to take the £125,000 winner's cheque this season, only for King to produce a 10-6 upset victory in the semi-finals.

King, a Premier League debutant this year, was unable to repeat the feat in the final, though, as 26-year-old Wade followed up his semi-final victory over Raymond van Barneveld with triumph in the decider. (full report...)

Wembley awaits Power surge - 20 May 2009

The 14-time world champion secured first place in the concluding round of the league phase a fortnight ago in Cardiff with a ruthless 8-2 victory over bitter rival Mervyn King.

The pair will meet again in the semi-final of the play-offs and Taylor, 48, admits he cannot wait for Monday's clash. (full article...)
