Premier League Darts 2026 results: Jonny Clayton beats Gian van Veen to win night three in Glasgow

Jonny Clayton ruthlessly brushed aside Gian van Veen to become the third different nightly winner of the Premier League Darts season in Glasgow.

The Welshman, who is back in the tournament after a two-year hiatus, beat the world number three 6-2 to continue his impressive start to the year.

He started the night by ending a near three-year and 10-match losing run against compatriot Gerwyn Price, before demolishing world number one Luke Littler 6-1 in the semi-finals.

The 2021 winner averaged 99.88 and 101.33 in those two matches but it was his checkouts at 60% and 66.67% that really stood out.

While that dropped to 42.86% in the final, his average increased to 104.35 as he follows Price and Michael van Gerwen as night winners this season.

He broke Van Veen in the opening leg and in the seventh before sealing victory with a stunning 156 checkout.

The victory takes him to the top of the early standings, ahead of Van Gerwen, who missed the night through illness, and Van Veen, who has now been beaten in two finals.
