Gerwyn Price<\/a> has hit out at the playing conditions in Berlin after his Premier League Darts<\/a> run ended in defeat to Luke Littler<\/a> on Thursday night.<\/p>\n

Price had looked in strong form earlier in the evening, producing a 101.56 average in a dominant quarter-final win over Gian van Veen. But despite another solid display in the semi-finals, he was beaten 6-4 by Littler, who fired in a 108.58 average to take control of the contest.<\/p>\n

Taking to Instagram<\/a> shortly after the match, Price made his frustrations clear, pointing to the conditions as a major factor. \u201cSo bloody frustrating. Luke\u2019s playing really well at the moment, but to have to play in such shocking conditions it\u2019s so bloody hard. But nothing\u2019s ever done\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

The Welshman\u2019s comments suggest a broader issue rather than a one-off complaint, with his remark that \u201cnothing\u2019s ever done\u201d hinting at ongoing concerns among players.<\/p>\n

Price still competitive despite frustration<\/p>\n

Despite the defeat, Price\u2019s performance levels remained high throughout the night. His 101.56 average in the quarter-finals was followed by a 98.17 showing against Littler, underlining that he was far from off his game.<\/p>\n

However, the fine margins at the top level were evident, with Littler continuing his dominant Premier League campaign. The teenager went on to win the night, beating Michael van Gerwen 6-4 in the final, and further strengthening his position at the top of the table.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe it\u2019d be easier to play on the beach\u201d<\/p>\n

Price\u2019s frustration did not stop at a general complaint, with the Welshman also questioning the consistency of conditions across venues in a more pointed remark. \u201cMaybe it\u2019d be easier to play on the beach front outdoors every week so we know what to expect\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

He ended his message by thanking the Berlin crowd for their support before turning his attention to the next night. \u201cThanks all for the amazing support once again, you really are amazing. Onto next week it is.\u201d<\/p>\n
