Clayton Dominant as Van Gerwen Withdraws in Glasgow

Review

With van Gerwen absent through illness, Jonny Clayton seized the opportunity at the OVO Hydro, winning his second Premier League night of the season with a composed 6–2 defeat of Gian van Veen. Clayton's 156 checkout and clinical semi-final demolition of Littler (6–1) underlined his form as the early-season standard-setter. Humphries posted 105.95 in defeat — the highest match average of the night — while the night average of 99.63 remained among the best of the 2026 campaign.
