LEDBURY’S Terry Jenkins rounded off his 888.com Premier League campaign with an 8-4 defeat against James Wade at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle.

Neither player could qualify for the play-offs but Jenkins was looking to finish on a high.

However, Wade, the 2009 champion, produced a polished display in front of 7,000 fans.

The result meant Jenkins, nicknamed The Bull, finished seventh in the eight-player league with three wins and two draws from his 14 matches over the campaign.

Wade began brilliantly, hitting two 180s in winning the opening leg before taking out the maximum 170 finish to break throw in the second.

After checking out double top to win the third, he missed one dart at the same bed in leg four as Jenkins posted double 10 to get off the mark.

Wade added further check-outs of 142 and 104 in winning two of the next three legs as he moved 5-2 up — Jenkins finishing on double top in between.

He also won the eighth leg to establish a four-leg cushion in the contest.

Jenkins started the ninth with a 177 and two 140s before winning the leg on double two, and double eight saw him pull back to 6-4 in the next.

Wade, though, regained top gear to hit his fourth 180 of the match in the next, finishing on double 10 to move a leg away from victory, which he sealed on double eight.
