Van Gerwen admitted in his interview that he had to work harder than needed to but that he was feeling good and confident after the win. "I made myself work harder than I needed to," Van Gerwen admitted. "I missed darts to go 3-0 up and I gave him too much confidence, I should never have put myself in that situation because Adrian puts the pressure on you. "I had to be at my best and I'm feeling good and confident in myself, so from here I hope to build on this into the rest of the tournament." for more information about the
