Michael van Gerwen will not win the Grand Slam of Darts for the third time in his career this week. Mighty Mike went down 16-10 against Luke Humphries in the quarterfinals.
Van Gerwen was bitterly disappointed afterwards. "This was totally unnecessary. I already didn't feel good in the preparation and started the match very badly. Afterwards I tried to get into my rhythm a bit, but it just didn't work out," Van Gerwen told Viaplay.
"This is tremendously sour," the 33-year-old Dutchman continued. "I kept going for it one hundred percent and didn't give up, but he also threw some high finishes at important moments. I really owe this defeat entirely to myself."

- 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
