STEPHEN Bunting won the 10th Granite City Open at the Station Hotel in Aberdeen.

The Liverpudlian beat Alloa’s John Goldie in a one-sided final by three sets to nil (3-0, 3-1, 3-0).

The BDO World No3, nicknamed The Bullet, hit two maximums in the final and checked out 132 (bull, 42, 40) and 112 (60, 20, 32).

Aberdeen’s Craig Robertson saw his chance of glory disappear in the semi-finals when he lost to Goldie.

Bunting beat Northern Ireland’s Darryl Gurney in their last four clash. Bunting said: “I’ve played well all weekend and was confident whoever I was playing in the final.”
