Fallon Sherrock returned to winning ways with an emphatic 5-1 victory over Lisa Ashton in the final of Event Seven of the PDC Women's Series in Wigan.

Sherrock, who won Event Three on the opening weekend of the Women's Series in Barnsley last month, had exited at the semi-final and last-64 stage in Saturday's two events, but the 'Queen of the Palace' was back to her best as she whitewashed Lorraine Hyde, Kim Holden and Tracy North 4-0 in the first three rounds.

Kirsty Hutchinson and Rhian Griffiths were then beaten 4-2 before Sherrock saw off Jane Densley 5-3 in the semi-finals.

Ashton lost only two legs as she progressed to the quarter-finals where she defeated Laura Turner 4-1 and she followed that up with another impressive victory over Mikuru Suzuki, who was dispatched 5-1 in the last four.

However, Ashton was unable to notch her fifth success of the Women's Series as Sherrock proved too strong in the final.

For the second day running, though, Ashton was not to be denied the second time around as she took the honours in Event Eight with a 5-2 defeat of Katie Sheldon in the final.

Sheldon completed her dream run to the final by edging out Sherrock 5-4 in the last four after an earlier 4-1 victory over Turner.
