De Zwaan freed from shoulder injury and aims for final at World Matchplay: 'Hopefully semi-final is not the end'

After impressive victories over Michael van Gerwen, Adrian Lewis and Dave Chisnall, 'The Flying Scotsman' will try to stop De Zwaan's incredible run in Blackpool. 'The Black Cobra' is extremely proud of his performance so far, but his hunger has not been satisfied yet. ''I didn't care who I would play in the semi-finals. I have reached the last four at the World Matchplay and that makes me very happy. However, I hope this will not be the end of the tournament for me'', De Zwaan told . A possible reason for his Matchplay success in Blackpool is the successful treatment of his shoulder injury. This was one of the reasons why the Leidschendam based star lost his Tour Card, which he has recaptured in January. 'The Black Cobra' said he suffers no pain from his shoulder anymore. ''I'm bringing a lot of visits to the physio, receive some massages and that helps a lot. It ensures that my shoulder feels flexible.'' Even the longer format (best of 31 legs) at the World Matchplay, does not cause problems for De Zwaan's shoulder. ''I changed my style slightly. Instead of throwing harder, I'm throwing with more souplesse. Maybe that helped a lot for me.'' for more information about the World Matchplay.
