After then beating Ryan Searle in the last four, Price stormed back from 6-3 down against Premier League rival Chris Dobey in the final to win 8-7 and claim his first PDC ranking title in over a year.
Dobey, who beat Price in the Premier League last week, saw off the likes of Jose de Sousa, Callan Rydz and Ross Smith en route to the final.
World champion Luke Littler averaged over 100 and lost again as Gerwyn Price went on to win the Players Championship Two in Wigan.
The 18-year-old has suffered defeats in five matches this year now despite averaging over a ton, including twice to Price after the Welshman stole a 6-5 victory in the quarter-finals.
Price told PDC.tv: “I think Chris played better than me in that final, but I hung in there until the end.
