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.
Wade led 7-0 before King
took seven of the next nine
to pull back into the game,
but he had left himself too
much to do as the former
mechanic picked up his
fourth televised title.
"This is the best moment of
my career and it's a very
special tournament to win,"
said Wade. "Because it's
spread over three months
it's probably the biggest
tournament in darts.
