Sky Sports’ darts reporter Laura Turner says Adrian Lewis is an expert with regards to gamesmanship on the oche after ‘Bonanza’ disturbed Gerwyn Price into a response at the Czech Open.

The previous title holders should have been isolated by ref Russ Bray as tempers took steps to bubble over at the competition in Prague throughout the end of the week.

Lewis in the end dominated the competition in a fiery issue, winning 6-3, notwithstanding warmed words being traded between the pair toward the finish of the match.

Double cross title holder Lewis, said: “I don’t have the foggiest idea what was going on with that toward the end, yet he had a go at me for reasons unknown, calling me ‘fat something’.

“He clearly doesn’t understand I’m a competitor, that is how he’s veered off-track there!”

The occurrence happened after Lewis embraced Price from behind after his triumph, with the Welshman freaking out and pointing a finger out of frustration.

Value took to Instagram later, posting: “One that I let get to me this evening, on account of the group you were astonishing. I become familiar with each day and it just makes me more grounded, love all of you see you in London.”

Turner felt it was ‘terrible timing’ by ‘Bonanza’ in the wake of embracing Price, with the previous double code rugby player obviously couldn’t care less about to partake in Lewis’ happiness.

Raz Mirza, she said: “There is at times a touch of needle of the oche, yet it’s simply that regular response on the grounds that Gerwyn is distraught he lost.

“These things occur. I’m certain off the oche in time it will be fine, however when you’re up there in a high-pressure circumstance and you need to win, emotions can get raged out of control.

“These are athletes toward the day’s end and they’re there to finish a work. Once in a while when it doesn’t turn out well for you that regular response emerges and it’s not generally the best one to see as a watcher.

“You will get that degree of spotlight and hostility on the oche and in some cases it simply pours out. It occurs in each game, as a matter of fact, isn’t that so? Be that as it may, when it occurs in darts, it is simply you.

“While it’s going great it’s a splendid spot to be, yet when it’s not going so well it tends to be fairly forlorn.”

Considering Lewis’ joking remarks while discussing the episode, Turner said: “That is absolutely Adrian Lewis, right? Can we just be look at things objectively. I think he knows how to provoke players, yet that is all essential for the game and it’s for each player to manage those circumstances.”
