2023 Nordic Darts Masters: Gerwyn Price vs Peter Wright final results, score, & match summary

After winning his second World Championship, Wright had a challenging year in 2022, but he showed signs of regaining his form by winning his fourth World Series of Darts at the Nordic Darts Masters. In his quarterfinal match against Michael van Gerwen, Wright replicated his Friday’s Forum Copenhagen first round victory over Dennis Nilsson by forcing a decisive leg once more. After edging out a 10-9 victory in that match, he defeated World Champion Michael Smith 11-8 in the semifinals. Wright jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead before Smith displayed his skill to tie the match after ten legs, but the Scot drew away in the second half of the match to go to the final.

Wright got off to a great start against Price, completing 104, 149, & 140 to quickly build a five-leg lead. Price managed to win two of the next three legs to start his comeback but Wright clinched the following three legs to lead 9-2 and remain within inches of the title. Although Price managed to win three consecutive legs and reduce the deficit to 5-9, his miss in the 16th leg allowed Wright to cross the finish line by score of 11-5. Following his dominant run, Wright will surely be labelled as one of the favorites for next week’s 2023 CAZOO Masters.
