Preston midfielder Paul Gallagher defeated England internationals James Maddison and Declan Rice and West Brom striker Charlie Austin to win the PDC's Darts At Home: Footballers Special.
In a best of three legs format where each leg started on 301 instead of the traditional 501, former Scotland international Gallagher overcame Austin and Rice 2-0, either side of edging out Leicester midfielder Maddison 2-1.
Austin finished second after wins over Maddison and Rice, with the West Ham midfielder propping up the table after a clean sweep of defeats as part of an event to raise funds for NHS Charities Together.
