Van Gerwen takes aim at £100k payout for double nine-darter: “I will be going out there and giving everything”

Michael Van Gerwen has form for nearly hitting two nine-dart finishes at the World Darts Championship famously missing double 12 for a second back in 2012.

But if he can complete it this time, there will be £100k dished out with Selco pledging the amount with £25k going to Global’s Make Some Noise charity and another £25k going to a random fan. The other half will go to the player and it is a feat Van Gerwen hopes to achieve.

PDC sponsor puts £100k on the line for one player to hit nine-dart finishes at World Darts Championship

"Hitting two nine-dart finishes over the course of the tournament is hard, but it's certainly not impossible. I will be going out there and giving everything to make it happen, not only for myself but for the fan and the charity as well.
