CLAYTON SHERIFF IN NOTTINGHAM – BETMGM PREMIER LEAGUE DARTS NIGHT 6 RECAP

There’s just no stopping Jonny Clayton this season.

The man sitting atop the BetMGM Premier League Darts table defied both a resurgent Luke Humphries and an attack of gout to win his second night of the season and go eight points clear in Nottingham.

Here’s everything you need to know about Night 6 in a nutshell:

  • Night 6 winner: Jonny Clayton
  • Runner-up: Luke Humphries
  • Key takeaway: Clayton becomes the first player to win two nights this term; Humphries makes his first final of the season; Luke Littler hits the most 180s despite exiting in the semis; Josh Rock remains bottom and pointless after six weeks; BetMGM had our first Viva Darts Vegas winner of the campaign!

How Night 6 Unfolded in Nottingham

Clayton’s path to victory in Nottingham was a masterclass in resilience, becoming the first two-time nightly winner of the season despite battling clearly struggling with gout.

His journey culminated in a spectacular final where he dismantled Humphries 6-1, capping an evening that saw the Welshman return to his clinical best with an outstanding 66.6% checkout success.

The Ferret showcased his full array of weaponry en route to the final, dispatching Michael van Gerwen in the quarters before producing a classy, ton-plus average display to see off Stephen Bunting in the semi-finals.

It had looked like it would be a breakthrough night for Humphries.

Cool Hand finally conquered two ‘bogey men’ – first beating Gian van Veen before surviving a dramatic semi-final against Littler – before falling at the last to Clayton behind a paltry 12.5% on the doubles.

The night's other epic encounter saw Littler win a colossal quarter-final against Gerwyn Price, averaging a stunning 108.6 and piling in 10 180s.

At the other end of the table Rock’s wait for a first BetMGM Premier League win extends to another week, adding even more pressure ahead of a trip to Dublin for Night 7.

THE WINNER’S ENCLOSURE WITH… JONNY CLAYTON

“I wasn’t expecting much, to be honest. I was suffering from gout in my ankle,” Clayton said post-match.

“It was a little bit difficult – but my arm was OK and that’s all that counts.

Jonny Clayton quote

“I didn’t expect to be on top of the league after Night Six. I was expecting to have eight points in total!

“I know what it’s about, getting the points in early. It’s not a bad start, and hopefully it can carry on.

“It’s my favourite tournament, I love it. Hopefully I’m proving why I should be in it, and my darts are doing the talking.”

Updated 2026 BetMGM Premier League Darts Table

Clayton’s second nightly win extended his commanding lead at the top of the table and created a significant eight-point gap back to Littler, who now sits alone in second place.

The real battle is for the play-off spots. Humphries’ first final of the season rockets him into a three-way tie for third on nine points, joining Price and Van Veen.

The shuffle means seven-time winner Van Gerwen now finds himself down in sixth and very much still on the outside looking in.

Bunting's semi-final run keeps him just about in touch with the rest but the story at the bottom remains unchanged: Rock’s wait for a first point goes on, leaving him rooted to the foot of the table after six nights.
