Dimitri van den Bergh claimed the World Matchplay title and among other accolades, he has become the first World Youth Champion ever to win a ranking TV title.
Van den Bergh is of course a two time World Youth Champion and as a result was imparted that brilliant statistic with Michael Smith in particular yet to win one.
He was originally the 7th player from continental Europe to reach a ranking final in the PDC; in victory became the 1st new continental winner of a ranking TV title since 2012 with Michael van Gerwen the last new winner.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
