Gerwyn Price loses to world number 92: the biggest surprise of the championship.
Bitter disappointment for Gerwyn Price
According to The Sun: Gerwyn Price suffered the worst exit from the World Championship in seven years, as he was crushed by world number 92 in just 22 minutes.
Little known in the darting world, Wesley Plaisier humiliated 'The Iceman' with a score of 3-0 in the second round, which has become the biggest upset of the tournament so far.
“I don't know what happened, but it's just not my day,” said Price after the defeat.
Price, who owns a fish and chips shop in his hometown, could not show his usual level of play and left the tournament in the most humiliating way.
This defeat was shocking for dart fans, as much hope was placed on Gerwyn. Among players, he is known for his ability to compete at the highest level, but in this match, a lack of confidence and focus led to the unexpected result. Now everyone is waiting to see how Price can overcome this setback and return to the competition path in upcoming tournaments.
