In the quarter-finals of the European Championship, Dirk van Duijvenbode lost out to Jonny Clayton in a 10-4 defeat. In particular, he was disappointed due to two fans in particular who shouted when he was throwing.
"There were always two people who shouted when I had to throw. I never think in problems but in solutions, so I put in my earplugs. Unfortunately the sound still came through. In a room with 10,000 fans, you won't be bothered by that, but in a quiet room with 250 people you will," said van Duijvenbode to RTL 7.
"I don't really want to look for excuses at all, it's my fault that I couldn't deal with it. I'm 100% sure that I wouldn't have lost without those two fans and that makes me very disappointed."

- 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
