Van Gerwen after Quarter-Final victory over Joyce: ‘I put too much pressure on myself’

Van Gerwen spoke afterwards and admitted that he played well but in the end he put too much pressure on himself. He said as a result against Anderson he’s expecting something special from himself. “I think I played well overall tonight, but I had a terrible spell because I put too much pressure on myself," said Van Gerwen. "I wanted to show everyone what I can do and I dipped down a bit but I can't really complain with a 5-1 win. "Tomorrow night I will be expecting something special from myself, I can't let myself down and I need to make sure I'm sharp." for more information about the PDC World Darts Championship, including schedules and the prize fund breakdown.
