Van Gerwen raises £7100 pounds at half-way stage of Premier League charity pledge
NewsTuesday, 10 April 2018 at 19:06
After nine rounds of play in the Premier League Darts, Michael van Gerwen has collected an amount of 7100 pounds for the Make A Wish and Be Gamble Aware foundations.
The two-time world champion promised to transfer a hundred pounds for every 180-score to the Make A Wish foundation. The amount is distributed fairly between the Dutch and British departments of this foundation.
After nine rounds of play, the counter stands at 35 maximum scores. Both departments of the charity can therefore count at least 1750 pounds. This action could cost the 28-year-old Dutchman a lot of money. Over the past five years Van Gerwen has always scored more than sixty maximum scores.
In addition, Unibet, the title sponsor of the Premier League Darts, promised to transfer a hundred pounds for every 180 and 177 score to Be Gamble Aware. An organization that tries to counter the chance of gambling addiction.
In addition to the 35 maximum scores, Van Gerwen once scored a 177 score. Be Gamble Aware can therefore expect a check of at least £ 3,600.

- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- 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
