PDC World Championship starting Thursday a heavy favourite. He admitted that as a result he will have pressure on him so it’s up to him to perform and prepare well as a result. "It feels amazing to win the World Championship title, you work so hard for it all year and it's a phenomenal moment of completion," said two-time World Champion Van Gerwen. "I've won two but I want to win more and to do that I have to make sure that I'm ready. I know I'll be a big favourite and there will be pressure on me, so I have to perform.
