Michael van Gerwen takes on Michael Smith in the semi-finals of the play-offs in Premier League Darts on Thursday and Kim Huybrechts is backing the Dutchman to prevail.
Van Gerwen failed to win a weekly Premier League title following the sixth week of play, yet he is still top favourite for the overall win, according to fellow darter Huybrechts. "I have absolutely no doubt about him. Michael has so much experience, he can quickly make the switch even after a few lesser results and get back to his top level. He is definitely not going to worry," Huybrechts told 433 Darts.
"At the big tournaments, Michael is always there," Huybrechts continued. "He is a real winner and is going to sell his skin extremely dearly on Thursday. He has already won everything, but remains as motivated as ever to put those big tournaments on his name."

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
