Michael van Gerwen was dumped out of the Hungarian Darts Trophy as Simon Whitlock once again proved a thorn in the side of the Green Machine sealing a sixth straight win.
Van Gerwen as expected was frustrated especially at his doubling with the commentators Paul Nicholson and Mark Webster saying that they were puzzled at the angle the darts were going in and that reflected in his poor doubling.
"A very frustrating night for myself. I had the opportunities but missed too many darts at a double and at this level you can do that. Thank you Budapest for the support. Good luck tomorrow Simon," said Van Gerwen on Twitter.
