Triple Triumph: Dobey Dominates for Third ProTour Title in 2024!

Chris Dobey showcased his exceptional ProTour form at the Robin Park Tennis Centre in Wigan, securing his third Players Championship title of 2024 with a commanding 8-3 victory over Stephen Bunting. Averaging an impressive 100.95 throughout the tournament, Dobey’s performance was marked by dominant wins, including a quarter-final triumph where he achieved a stunning 150 checkout against Luke Littler and a 7-1 semi-final demolition of Daryl Gurney. With this win, Dobey not only pocketed the £15,000 top prize but also extended his lead at the top of the Players Championship Order of Merit, positioning himself as the likely top seed heading into the November finals.

Despite Bunting’s impressive journey to the final, which included back-to-back appearances and stellar displays against notable opponents, he was unable to capitalize on early opportunities. Bunting leveled the match at three legs each after a majestic 140 checkout but ultimately fell victim to Dobey’s consistent scoring and capitalized on missed chances. As both players prepare for future tournaments, including the World Grand Prix, Dobey’s confidence and form set him up as a formidable competitor, while Bunting seeks to end a three-year title drought. The excitement continues in the Players Championship treble-header, with more action scheduled for Thursday.
