📊 In the last 10 years Michael van Gerwen has lost one match in the group stages of the Grand Slam of Darts 🤯 It was to Jonny Clayton in 2018 (he averaged 107.92 in defeat). Short format 🤷♂️ 😆 🟩
Van Gerwen virtually unbeatable in group stage Grand Slam of Darts for ten years now
PDCThursday, 10 November 2022 at 18:30
Michael van Gerwen is competing in the Grand Slam of Darts this month for the fifteenth time in his career. In each of the last 11 editions, 'Mighty Mike' managed to survive the group stage.
In the past ten years, Van Gerwen has proved virtually unbeatable in the group stage. Since the 2012 edition, the Dutchman suffered only one defeat during the first round.
During the 2018 edition, Jonny Clayton ensured this rarity by beating Van Gerwen 5-4. Van Gerwen, by the way, did throw an average of 107.92 in that match.
The chances of the three-time Grand Slam champion getting through his group unbeaten again this year are pretty significant. With Ross Smith, Luke Woodhouse and Nathan Rafferty, Van Gerwen's draw for the group stage of the Grand Slam of Darts 2022 was particularly favourable.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £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
