Van der Voort bitterly disappointed after elimination: 'Let myself down'

For Vincent van der Voort, the PDC World Darts Championship is over. The 47-year-old Dutchman went down 4-3 in the third round against Luke Humphries.

"I'm fed up with my own level, it just wasn't good enough," Van der Voort opened to Dartsnieuws.com. "I've worked really hard at practice over the past few months and today I managed to do it in fits and starts, but it was hugely inconsistent. Especially my first dart was poor, it was regularly closer to the double twenty than to the triple. I still tried everything, but it just wasn't to be today."
