- No 2 seed overcomes knee injury to win thriller 6-4
- Smith sees off James Wade 6-3 in first semi-final
Peter Wright secured a return to the final of the PDC world championship with a thrilling victory over fellow former champion Gary Anderson.
The 2020 winner will face Michael Smith, the runner-up three years ago, in Monday’s final after seeing off Anderson 6-4 in a high-quality second semi-final at Alexandra Palace. Wright, who later revealed a knee injury had been causing him discomfort, was pegged back to 3-2 and then 5-4 after opening in style by winning the first three sets. Anderson then took a leg against the throw to nudge ahead in the 10th set but second seed Wright recovered to hold off his fellow Scot and reach the final for a third time.
