Van Gerwen underwent scheduled surgery on his teeth on Monday and has not yet recovered sufficiently to play in the Nations tournament this weekend in Frankfurt, being replaced in the Dutch team by Dirk van Duijvenbode, who will now partner Danny Noppert for the second year running.
"I wish Danny & Dirk good luck and I hope they can win a fifth World Cup for the Netherlands," concludes van Gerwen.

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
