Van Gerwen looks back at maiden PDC World Darts Championship triumph: "I think a lot of frustration came out"

Michael van Gerwen looked back at past memories of the PDC World Darts Championship during a recent feature with the PDC with two moments in particular sticking out.
The first being losing to Phil Taylor back in 2008 on debut when he lost 3-2.
"I can remember I missed a few darts against Phil Taylor to go 2-1 up in sets," said Van Gerwen.
"Games against Phil Taylor were always incredible. We always had good battles. Some I won, some I lost but overall I can't complain too much."
Followed by his maiden triumph in 2014 when he defeated Peter Wright after losing in the final the year before to Phil Taylor.
"There's always a lot of pressure on your shoulders but of course it gets how long it takes before you win the World Championship, how frustrating it's going to get for yourself. At that point, I think a lot of frustration came out."
"It's always nice to win the title but three times is not what a lot of people have done. Three PDC titles, only one other Phil Taylor, that's it. There's still a lot in the tank, I know there's a lot more to come."

- I might actually enter this next year,for Β£5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
