Gerwyn Price, world champion, left the stage kicking himself after missing the darts that would have finished an otherwise dominant night. Jonny Clayton, league leader, now holds a three-point cushion in the table after the night’s results. Michael van Gerwen, the Dutchman, had been awarded a semi-final bye earlier when Gian van Veen withdrew with kidney stones, a development that shaped the semi-final lineup.
