Van Gerwen Bags Bahrain Masters Crown
Michael van Gerwen claimed his 17th World Series title, edging Gian van Veen 8-6 in a season-opening final marked by a power outage and intense Dutch rivalry.
- On Friday, Michael van Gerwen beat Gian van Veen 8-6 in the final to win the Bahrain Masters title at Exhibition World Bahrain.
- Michael van Gerwen had been leapfrogged in the rankings by Gian van Veen earlier this month, providing a backdrop to his title push with eight PDC players contesting Finals Night.
- Van Gerwen produced a 130-checkout on the bull and averaged over 107, later hitting a 103-checkout to win the decisive 14th leg.
- The win gave Van Gerwen his 17th World Series title and first since 2024, while world champion Luke Littler's 21-match unbeaten run was halted earlier this month.
- A power failure on Finals Night briefly halted play before Van Veen sealed his last-four spot, while the PDC expands to Saudi Arabia next week and Exhibition World Bahrain fills capacity.
