Van Duijvenbode left bemused by Premier League question: "They don't think I'm commercially good enough at the moment, I agree"

Dirk van Duijvenbode saw off Richard Veenstra in a 6-3 win to reach the Last 16 at the Baltic Sea Darts Open despite being way off his best.

Van Duijvenbode was honest as ever post match and said part of his issues were wanting to go to the toilet.

"I was a bit nervous. Wasn't very focused, I had to got to the toilet all the game. I'm just happy that I won in the end, it was not good and I was happy that Richard couldn't play as well as he can," said Van Duijvenbode post match.

He was also asked by MC Philip Brzezinski about the Premier League which left him bemused that it was being asked before giving a diplomatic answer on those not being picked.

"No not at all, I'm not even in the top 10. Why should I think about these things, it's a commercial thing. They don't think I'm commercially good enough at the moment, I agree. I don't understand people moaning about not being picked, it's a business and the business does whatever pays the business."
