Your views on Premier League Darts

  1. Thank you and good nightpublished at 23:05 GMT 26 February

    That's all from us - what a night!

    Stephen Bunting not only got his first points of the 2026 Premier League Darts, but he rattled off three impressive wins to claim victory on night four.

    But what about Norther Ireland's Josh Rock - he may have lost 6-2 again and remain bottom of the table, but he produced a nine-darter in front of a home Belfast crowd. Incredible.

    As ever, thank you for joining us. See you next week for night five in Cardiff.

    More from Stephen Bunting speaking to Sky Sports: "Every time I step up, no matter if I'm playing in the main tour or the worlds, I believe I'm one of the hardest players to beat, but people find a way, I always seem to lose to the winner!

    "I've come off social media, I've got a great team behind me, I'm not looking at the negatives, just the positives. I had hypnotherapy this morning at 8am.

    "I do believe I am one of the best players in the world, I deserve to be in the Premier League.

    "Everyone was writing me off, people saying I should not be in it, but I know how hard I work behind the scenes. I'm the only player who has a one-year old son at home. I've got to juggle family life."

    Stephen Bunting speaking to Sky Sports: "Losing seven or eight on the bounce last year really helped me, gave me a lot of experience in this field. When you play in the Premier League you're playing against the best of the best. I'm overjoyed. What a win. This ranks up as one of the best wins of my career.

    "I was a bit emotional after the first game, I held it together and I'm really happy with the performance. The crowd was unbelievable."

    Gian van Veen is mentally equipped. He's got a big old brain and he uses it.

    He'd love to be winning more but getting to the finals is tough. He knows he's good enough and he's beating players in previous weeks and tournaments, just not in finals. I think he's fine.
