Phil Taylor has won the Premier League title on four occasions
|
Phil Taylor produced a stunning performance to defeat Raymond van Barneveld 8-2 in the Premier League. The 49-year-old from Stoke-on-Trent won eight consecutive legs after falling 2-0 behind early on in Exeter. "I expected Raymond to click into gear, but when I went in front his head dropped," said Taylor, who has won his first four matches of the tournament. Elsewhere, defending champion James Wade picked up his first point, drawing 7-7 with Stoke's Adrian Lewis. Mervyn King picked up his third win of the campaign, beating Terry Jenkins 8-5, while Ronnie Baxter saw off the challenge of World Championship runner-up Simon Whitlock, eventually winning 8-6. Taylor and King, the current top two in the table, meet at the MEN Arena in Manchester on 11 March.
