Danny Noppert is through after a comeback victory over Ryan Searle where he had to come from a set down to see off 'Heavy Metal' at the World Grand Prix.
Noppert was pleased after the tie finished especially after Searle's opening set where he produced some brilliant darts to go ahead.
"I'm really happy with this win," said Noppert to Online Darts post match. "The first set he played really well. After the first set, it was a good comeback from me, he missed the doubles and I took the chances."
It was duly noted that Noppert was emotional after the match and was showing some real fire but he said that it may be what he needs to reach the next level.
Also he discussed the World Cup of Darts and said that while it will be a massive achievement, it's not at the top of his agenda right now.
"Last week on the European Tour, I was also emotional. Sometimes I need more pressure to do good things."
"It will mean a lot to play with Michael (van Gerwen). We will see what happens. I'm not busy with that, I'm busy with this tournament."

- 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
