ADAM HUNT and Jamie Lewis were both victorious in the PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour double-header held at the Robin Park Tennis Centre in Wigan on Saturday.
Hunt started his run to a first PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour final with wins over Ashley Sandon-Jones and Ryan Harrington before securing a whitewash victory over Jamie Wilkins to claim a last 32 spot.
A brace of 4-1 victories over Sam Hamilton and Samuel Head saw the 19-year-old from County Durham into the last four as he sought to follow up his 2011 Youth Tour success with another victory.
In the semi-finals he defeated another highly-rated youngster in the shape of Manchester’s Shaun Griffiths by a 4-3 margin before claiming the £500 first prize with a 4-2 triumph over Ricky Evans in the final.
Evans, who will travel to The O2 in London next month to face Michael Smith in the final of the PDC Unicorn World Youth Championship, dropped just two legs in his wins over Luke Cheevers, Wouter Vaes and James Young in the event's early rounds.
The 22-year-old from Kettering then defeated the talented pair of Jamie Lewis and Stuart Bousfield by 4-2 margins before easily disposing of Ross Smith 4-0 – his third whitewash victory of the event – to claim a place in the semi-finals.
Evans then ended the hopes of Dutchman Ryan de Vreede with a 4-2 win before being denied a maiden Challenge Tour victory as he lost to Hunt by the same scoreline in the decider.
Hunt continued his good form in the second event of the double-header as he overcame Keegan Brown, Adam Smith-Neale and Dan Butler, before a 4-1 triumph over Conor Mayes secured a place in the last 16.
The County Durham ace - managed and mentored by Gary Anderson - then whitewashed Jack Hill before a narrow 4-3 victory put him through to the last four for the second time on the day.
However, Hunt’s superb run came to an end as he was beaten by Jamie Lewis in a deciding-leg, before the Welshman went on to claim the title.
Lewis, who secured one Youth Tour victory last year, started the tournament strongly as he dropped just one leg in his first three matches before seeing off Sam Hamilton and then edging out Luke Woodhouse to reach the last four.
Lewis then followed up his win over Hunt by defeating Chris Aubrey 4-1 to claim the £500 first prize.
Swindon's Aubrey, who also claimed one tournament victory on last year’s Youth Tour, claimed a brace of 4-1 victories over Hermie van Orsouw and Charlie Burns before coming out on top against Jamie Atkins in a tight 4-3 encounter.
Aubrey ended Ricky Evans hopes with an excellent 4-2 victory before defeating David Pallett by the same scoreline to secure a semi-final place.
The 21-year-old overcame Alan Bell, from Bishops Auckland, with a tough 4-3 victory to reach the decider before falling to Lewis at the final hurdle.
The weeekend's action at the Robin Park Tennis Centre, in Wigan, concludes with one further £3,000 event to be played on Sunday.
