"I'm going to take that high average with me" - Dimitri Van den Bergh not too downhearted despite first round loss at Dutch Darts Masters

Dimitri Van den Bergh failed to retain his title at the Dutch Darts Masters this weekend.
The 29-year-old Belgian, who won the tournament last year, went down 6-3 against Gerwyn Price in the first round this year. Still, Van den Bergh performed far from poorly, averaging over 102 (versus Price's 103.43).
"Did I throw above 100 average?" a surprised Van den Bergh responded afterwards. "Then I achieved my goal for today. I gave everything, so this is positive. It wasn't perfect enough to win, especially in the second leg I missed some chances. Price was better again, shame though. But I'm satisfied with my level."
Van den Bergh also threw five 180s. "I'm happy to play matches again. It felt like new love (laughs), which is every first match of the year. And I'm going to take that high average with me. Then you know you can still make a lot of pots."

- 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
