English darts player James Wade wins World Grand Prix
English professional darts player James Wade won the World Grand Prix title in Dublin with a 6-3 win against Terry Jenkins.
This marks James Wade's second major title in three months because he also had been victorious at the World Matchplay in Blackpool.
James Wade, 24, and who comes from Aldershot, was leading 3-0 before Terry Jenkins came back fighting briefly, but James Wade was determined to win and he claimed three successive sets to clench his victory.
Afterwards, James Wade is reported to have said: "I have to admit I got a bit emotional with this. I had tears in my eyes and it means so much to me."
James Wade added: "After the World Matchplay some people said I got lucky or that it wasn't a real title because I didn't beat Phil Taylor or Raymond van Barneveld.
"Hopefully after this title, after I beat Ray in the semis, people will say I deserved it."
