Cross on the Premier League ahead of clash with Smith: 'All the games are going to be tough'

Rob Cross has continued his meteoric rise and has recaptured his form that saw him storm to his first World title. He faces Michael Smith tonight in a clash of two players in very good form.

Ahead of that he spoke about the Premier League admitting he looks forward to every Thursday whether he is winning or not. Cross though says despite the pressure that is put on him that he is still learning and will carry on doing so. "I've enjoyed it and it's fantastic with the crowds - it's unique," said 'Voltage'. 'It's brilliant - I look forward to it every Thursday whether it goes right or wrong! "All the games are going to be tough but I've got used to the Premier League now and I feel good, I'm nice and relaxed. "Now maybe I'm looked upon that I should win but it doesn't always happen that way and I'm still learning. "I've only had 15 months as a professional and I'm nowhere the finished article, and I'm going to carry on learning for the next two or three years." for the Premier League Darts prize fund breakdown.
