Gerwyn Price Withdraws from Aberdeen Premier League Due to Back Injury

Gerwyn Price, the Welsh darts player, has withdrawn from Thursday night’s Premier League Darts in Aberdeen due to a back injury. Under tournament rules, Price’s quarter-final opponent, Luke Humphries, will receive a bye into the semi-finals, gaining two league points and a +1 leg difference. Price, on the other hand, receives a -6 leg difference on the league table. Humphries will face the winner of the semi-final match between Michael van Gerwen and Rob Cross.

Premier League Darts: Who is in contention for O2 Finals Night?

With four regular nights of action remaining in the Premier League Darts 2024, eight players are vying for their chance to secure a spot at the O2 in London. Luke Littler and Luke Humphries currently sit top of the tree on 26 points, while Michael van Gerwen, Nathan Aspinall, Michael Smith, Gerwyn Price, Rob Cross, and Peter Wright are all within striking distance. The middle of the table is where things get interesting, with Van Gerwen, Aspinall, and Smith battling it out for the two remaining spots in the top four. Cross and Price know that if they have a big few weeks, they could nick one of the four spots from the battlers in the middle. Wright has not been in form during this year’s Premier League, but could still mathematically qualify if he wins all of the remaining nights and other results go his way.
