Luke Littler beat Luke Humphries for the third night in a row to record his sixth win of the season in the Premier League.
The 19-year-old set the record last year and now has two more nights to break the league milestone.
The win at Leeds backed up wins at Liverpool and Aberdeen in the last two weeks and opened up a five-point lead at the top of the table.
The 2024 champion, who was confirmed for the play-offs at London’s O2 Arena on May 28, defeated Michael van Gerwen 6-5 in the quarter-finals to see off Jonny Clayton in the semi-finals in another final round.
He won by the same scoreline in the finals – for the second week in a row against defending champion Humphries.
The final was a great game with both players averaging over 100 and over 45% check outs.
Liter missed a dart to break in the fifth leg, and Humphries had a chance to break and seal victory in leg 10.
But Liter stepped up in the decider to take the win and deny Humphries a third straight success at Leeds.
“Now I have to go on – I can go and beat my own record,” Leiter told Sky Sports.
“Even with his win over Jonny (Clayton in the semifinals), I know I’m clear by a few points. Now I’m clear and now I have to take the top spot.”
