Kleermaker not looking for excuses after King loss: "When you miss so many doubles, you have to look for the cause in yourself"

Martijn Kleermaker failed to survive the first round at his debut at the World Grand Prix. The 30-year-old Dutchman went down 2-0 against Mervyn King.

"I left myself down completely," opened Kleermaker at RTL 7. "In the first set I play well in the legs he was allowed to start, but poorly on my own legs. I should have won that set, but when you miss two darts for the set, it's an extra blow. My doubles were all over the show during the match."

Poor preparation

Kleermaker did not start his match in optimal conditions. "I don't want to go into too much detail, but I definitely did not have a great day. That did affect me on stage, because my head was not in the right place. Yet that's not the reason I lost, scoring-wise I was by far the better player, but when you miss so many doubles you have to look for the cause in yourself."
