PDCWednesday, 23 March 2022 at 14:02
In 2016, after a long wait, the time had finally come. The PDC paid a visit to the Netherlands with the Premier League, at Ahoy Rotterdam to be precise. The final round of the regular competition was played in the Dutch port city.
In the last match of the evening Michael van Gerwen and Phil Taylor faced each other. The stake was the first place in the regular season, with a bonus of 25,000 pounds attached. In the end it was Van Gerwen who, under the watchful eye of thousands of enthusiastic fans, beat his big rival 7-5.
This Thursday, the Premier League Darts returns to Ahoy Rotterdam for the first time since 2019. Due to the corona pandemic, the competition was only played in the UK in 2020 and 2021.
Watch the clash between Van Gerwen and Taylor back in the video below.

- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
- Not a Dobey fan at all but it’s bizarre that the winner of 3 Players Championship rounds does not qualify ahead of any runner up. The GSOD seems to be going the same way as footballs Champions League with a lot of non winners. The old football European Cup was a tournament of winners. GSOD should be for winners only and by tournament prestige and if it’s ranked. Not enough players or multiple event winners then add winners of the big invitationals such as the Premier League and WSOD.Mysstree02-11-2024
