SHAUN Griffiths and Joe Murnan continued their fine form in 2015 as they took the titles on Sunday’s PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour double-header in Wigan.
Youngster Griffiths sealed his second Challenge Tour win of the season with a 5-2 win against Ian Lever, whilst Joe Murnan beat Scott Dale to win the day's second event at the Robin Park Tennis Centre.
Griffiths was rarely troubled throughout the first event and began in confident fashion as he beat Richard Calvert (5-2), Brandonn Monk (5-3) and Glen Parsons (5-1) to win his board.
The 23-year-old then booked his place in the final with four consecutive 5-2 victories against Damian Smith, Ricky Williams, former World Championship runner-up Kirk Shepherd and Chris Aubrey.
And Griffiths would win by the same scoreline again in the final against Lever – who was appearing in first PDC final - as he brushed past the 52-year-old to take home the £2,000 top prize and continue his fine start to the 2015 PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour season.
Murnan, who won his maiden Players Championship title in Crawley two weeks ago, began his route to a second PDC title with wins over Terry Roach (5-1), Matthew Golding (5-4) and Mark Carter (5-1).
The 31-year-old would be forced to work hard for his place in the final though as he landed a number of tough draws, winning in deciding legs against Roxy-James Rodriguez, Saturday’s winner Jan Dekker and Spain’s Antonio Alcinas.
And it wouldn’t get any easier for Murnan in the final as he faced youngster Scott Dale, who was appearing in his third PDC final of the year.
But the 21-year-old would come up short again in the final as Murnan ran out a 5-3 victor to take the title and bring the weekend’s PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour action to a close.
