Michael van Gerwen achieves a fine milestone during Thursday night's performance in Berlin. 'Mighty Mike' will appear at the start of an evening in Premier League Darts for the 180th time, according to darts statistician Richard Ashdown.
Van Gerwen made his debut in Premier League Darts in February 2013 and missed only two rounds of play since then. In 2017, he had to miss one round of play due to an injury, while the 34-year-old Dutchman missed out on placement for the playoffs in 2020.
