Van Gerwen breezes into Auckland Darts Masters semi-finals with win over lacklustre Anderson
NewsSaturday, 04 August 2018 at 10:42
Michael Van Gerwen has carried on from where he left off in the first round of the Auckland Darts Masters by seeing off a lacklustre Gary Anderson to move into the semi-finals.
An average of 105 was the key in a typical Van Gerwen performance. MVG is unseeded for a PDC tournament for the first time in a number of years but if he can get past Peter Wright or Kyle Anderson he could have a very good chance of winning his first title in Auckland.
Anderson’s real highlight came with a 170 checkout but barring that a slow start was punished.
Six 180’s and 50% on the doubles capped off the win for Mighty Mike as he has sent out another statement to the field.

- True, thebogeyman. I guess, MVG is somewhat defending one of his own fellow Dutchmen. And for one of the first times in my life - yesterday, I wanted MVG to win a match. He stole a real woman's place... and that is what most of us, you and I included do not like it. Time to cut this woke nonsense out of society.MrYnyslas197110-11-2024
