Maik Kuivenhoven's debut in the PDC World Darts Championship didn't go successfully with a 3-0 defeat to Matthew Edgar.
Kuivenhoven spoke to RTL7 Darts afterwards and admitted that nerves played a big factor.
“I wasn't relaxed enough on stage,” he said. "As a result, the darts don't go where I want them to go."
Edgar repeatedly punished Kuivenhoven's misses. "There was too much tension", Kuivenhoven continues. "If you get opportunities, you have to take them."
In any case, the goal for the coming year is clear: "Be here again next year, that's what we're going for", he concluded.

- And this should be the end of it. He was playing like a w****r and gestured as such. End of.Mysstree25-12-2024
- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024
- Was a great match and am a fan of Scott, don't see much of him on TV. How the hell is Cross 5 in the world, he goes out almost immediately in every competition.richieburnettrocks24-12-2024

- 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
