Price admits tiredness

Price was up at 5am going for an early breakfast at McDonald’s - as it appeared on his Instagram story - but still had the stamina to win the final.

He revealed: “Around about 7pm I was starting to feel tired. I’ve been up since half four this morning.

“I was like I hopefully can get through my first game and probably just get knocked out because I felt a bit tired.

“I’m not sure what happened but I just felt re-energised and I felt like I had another gear in me.

“Against Peter (Wright) I could have gone out but in the final I played a little bit better.

“It fills me full of confidence now. I haven’t had much confidence over the past couple of weeks or couple of months.

“But building game by game and winning the final gives me a lot of confidence.”

Price speaks

Gerwyn Price has spoken out after his 8-1 battering of Luke Littler down under.

I think Luke missed a couple of doubles, probably could have won another two or three legs and then it’s a different story.

It’s happened to me in the past and I’m glad it was for me tonight.

He missed a couple of doubles and it looks like I’ve kind of run away with it. It was a tough game.

Gerwyn Price
