Van Gerwen loss means no Dutchman in World Matchplay Quarter-Finals since 2005

Michael van Gerwen losing to Glen Durrant means that for the first time since 2005 there is no Dutchman in the World Matchplay Quarter-Finals.
Van Gerwen, De Zwaan and Noppert were the players who went out early doors in the competition with no Raymond van Barneveld involved of course.
In 2005, Colin Lloyd won the competition and was a first-time winner, could we get a new winner once again this year?
The odds are stacked in that favour with only James Wade left in the tournament who has previously won at the Winter Gardens.

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.

And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.UndartedWaters18-11-2024
