"I had to dig in, I had to knuckle down to win... without this crowd behind me it would have been really difficult" Hear from Gerwyn Price after he won his seventh European Tour title, and a dejected Dirk van Duijvenbode after losing in a deciding leg.

Dirk van Duijvenbode spurned three match darts to seal his maiden European Tour title as Gerwyn Price won his seventh at the European Darts Open in Leverkusen.
Left dejected as expected post match, he believes he should've won and the margin shouldn't have even been close in the end but that in sealing the win, Price showed his class.
"I didn't play my best game but I should have won anyway," said Van Duijvenbode.
"It is what it is. I don't think it should be that close, I could have [had] some bigger distance [between us] at the beginning, and in the end there's no holding him back.
"That's just the class he has. He's never afraid, he takes out the 108."

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
