Michael van Gerwen came through against Gary Anderson in what was a bit of a one sided affair between the pair brought on by a slow start by the new World Matchplay champion.
Van Gerwen himself after the match spoke about his admiration for Anderson admitting that them two are the best in the world despite there being some phenomenal players.
For him he needed to keep his game up despite the failings of Anderson so he didn’t make any mistakes.
“Gary and I know how to beat each other and I know there are some phenomenal players but Gary and I are the best in my opinion.
“He didn’t play his best game there but I know what Gary can do and I had to keep my performance up and not make any mistakes to make sure I beat him,” said Van Gerwen.

- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Nobody cares about averages, the only record he'll take from Phil and its meaningless. Winning tournaments is the only importance of darts and nobody will ever eclipse Phil in any meaningful way. What does an average pay or warrant any success, this proves that, yet people still bang on about them.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
