Absolutely gutted to lose that. It was a good game, I missed a few chances and Jonny took them. Credit to @JonnyClay9 who played a phenomenal game and good luck to him in the final as he’s a great guy. Thank you for all the support this week 💚💚
Van Gerwen after losing to eventual Premier League champion Clayton: “I'm on my way back now but there's still hard work to do”

Michael van Gerwen couldn’t claim a sixth Premier League Darts title losing to eventual champion, Jonny Clayton with a first semi-final loss in the tournament for the Green Machine.
After claiming the scalp of Mighty Mike, Clayton went on to win the title and post match, he earmarked consistency as the reason why he lost out but that on his route back to the top, he is not there just yet.
"This one is on my chin," he said to RTL7. "I'm on my way back now but there's still hard work to do.
"Jonny played really great. I wasn't consistent enough, he punished me at the right moments. I shouldn't have put him in that position - I gave him the confidence and a great feeling."

- 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.
