Dave Chisnall won his career-biggest PDC darts title in Germany

Dave Chisnall claimed the biggest victory of his career as he defeated Peter Wright 6-2 in the German Darts Championship final, scooping the £20,000 first prize and moving up to seventh in the PDC Order of Merit.

The St Helens ace had reached two European Tour finals in 2012, losing out to Phil Taylor and Raymond van Barneveld, but finally went one better as he won his first title since last November.

Chisnall had continued his fine weekend's form at Halle 39 in Hildesheim as he defeated Paul Nicholson and Kevin Painter in deciding legs earlier on Sunday, before sealing a 6-4 semi-final win over Steve Beaton with a spectacular 170 checkout.

He enjoyed his most comprehensive win in the final as he dropped only two legs and averaged almost 100 in seeing off Wright 6-2 to claim glory in front of a sell-out German crowd.

After edging a nervy opening leg, Chisnall doubled his lead with a 13-dart leg and, after Wright got off the mark with a 14-dart finish, he then took out 130 for a 12-darter to lead 3-1.

Chisnall then punished a missed double 18 from Wright by landing double nine to move 4-1 up, and took out tops to move to the brink of victory at 5-1.

"It's the highlight of my career," said Chisnall. "It feels great and I'm delighted because I played well throughout the tournament.

Wright had to settle for the £10,000 runner-up prize as he was denied a third ranking title which would have been the biggest win of his career.
