Martin Schindler claimed his third European Tour title within two years at the Elten Safety Shoes Austrian Darts Open in Graz on Sunday.
Schindler defeated Ross Smith 8-4 in the final at the Premstättner Halle to make it a hat-trick of European Tour titles since his first victory in Riesa just over a year ago.
The German number one, who won his first Players Championship title in March, jumps up three places to 18th on the PDC Order of Merit.
"I'm so happy, I fought my way through today," said Schindler.
"It may not have been great, but it was good enough in the end.
"The relief was huge when the match dart went in. When the game is over, only then can you let go of the tension and celebrate, that's exactly what I knew.
"I didn't want to celebrate too early either, but I won in the end, that's what counts."
Schindler landed checkouts of 116 and 115 to take a 7-2 lead in the final, before Smith mounted a comeback with back-to-back legs.
However, Schindler found the winning double at the third time of asking to seal another memorable European Tour triumph.
"Martin played really well and deserves this title," said Smith, who remains 17th on the PDC Order of Merit.
"He's a top professional and a well deserved winner.
"I'll take it on the chin, I didn't play well in the final but I probably rode my luck to get that far.
"It's good for the rankings and if I reach the final without playing well it means I'm doing something right."
Smith came through a tense last-leg decider against Peter Wright in the last 16, before defeating Dirk van Duijvenbode and Ryan Joyce in the quarter-finals and semi-finals respectively.
