Michael van Gerwen eased past William O’Connor in a 6-2 victory and praised the crowd after his win saying he doesn’t need motivation to play in front of them.
He was also extra pleased due to having his wife, Daphne in the crowd likely due to him playing in his home country. "I don't need motivation to play in front of a crowd like this, they are amazing," said world number one Van Gerwen. "I played well, I didn't make any mistakes and I'm glad to have performed. "I'm happy because my wife is here to see me play and now I will enjoy this moment before looking forward to tomorrow."

- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
