Van Gerwen was on top form after the match concluded and said Price getting close isn’t good enough and that he will be throwing everything at him.
Mighty Mike added that he has the most talent of anyone left by a mile and that if he plays well he firmly believes he will be champion.
“He [Gerwyn Price] has been getting closer to me in some games but close isn’t good enough it’s as simple as that," Van Gerwen declared.
“I’ve got more in the tank for the match with Gerwyn and I’m going to throw everything at him tomorrow.
“I know of all the players left I have the most talent by a mile, so if I play well and don’t make any mistakes then I will be the champion, simple.”
