Stephen Bunting has revealed his first purchase after winning the Players Championship

Bunting hit SIX 180 checkouts and clocked up a three- dart average of 101.74 on his way to victory.

The barnstorming performance certainly made up for Monday’s PC 24 final defeat to Jeffrey de Graaf.

And the win saw Bunting rake in a cool £15k.

Speaking afterwards, the fan favourite claimed he is entering top form.

Bunting reckons he can get even better throughout the year.

And the ace revealed he would spend part of his latest winnings on a mouth-watering Indian takeaway.

Bunting said: “One million percent. I know how well I am playing.

“Long may that continue. I will keep working hard.

“I have played exceptionally this week and was disappointed not to win yesterday (Monday).

“To do two finals and to get one over the line, I am really happy with that.

“Hopefully that keeps continuing.

“The standard is so high and if I don’t keep practising I will get left behind.”
