Van Gerwen believes that he is almost unbeatable when he everyone is playing at their best and the only side that can let him down is mentally.
“If everyone plays their A game, the only one who can beat me is myself. Simple. They know that, they won’t admit it, but they know it’s true! If I play good I know I’m going to win. Everyone knows that," he confidently tells Darts1.de.
"To do that 365 days a year is a big ask of myself so you need to plan everything in the year right and don’t make any mistakes. If you make mistakes, they will bite off my whole hand."
But MVG had some good words for rivals in Peter Wright and Gerwyn Price. “Of course they are great players. Look at Price how he progresses himself is insane. Peter Wright as well, he totally deserved to win that title. I have to play my A game then we see who’s going to win.”
