Gerwyn Price moans ‘it’s not fair’ as World Darts Championship prize money doubled
Gerwyn Price has urged the PDC chiefs into a rethink following this week’s announcement that the World Darts Championship winner will bank a whopping £1million in prize money. Previously, the Ally Pally victor took home £500,000, with the change seeing a 100 per cent increase to the winnings.
While the likes of Luke Littler and Luke Humphries will be licking their lips together in anticipation of the bumper prize, Price isn’t convinced it’s the best move for the sport. Instead, the Welshman fears the World Championship will solely dictate who claims the world No.1 spot, rendering a lot of the other competitions – as far as the Order of Merit goes – meaningless.
