The full results from the Ladbrokes Players Championship Finals, which took place from November 27-29 at Coventry's Ricoh Arena.
Hot on the heels of the Grand Slam of Darts, the final major before the season-ending World Championship is over as Michael van Gerwen came through a field of 64 players in Coventry to win the title for the sixth time.
The Dutchman was defending the crown he won against Gerwyn Price 12 months ago and had to come through another sudden-death thriller against Mervyn King, who was denied his maiden major title.
Look back at how the tournament unfolded here with the full results and daily round-ups while we also have details of all this year's Players Championship winners, past finals and prize money.
