Van Gerwen wants revenge against Whitlock: 'I have a bone to pick with him, but also with other players'

In the first round of the World Grand Prix, Michael Van Gerwen needed a deciding leg against Krzysztof Ratajski, but in the second round he won 3-0 against Devon Petersen pouncing on a lot of missed chances from 'The African Warrior'.

Van Gerwen and Petersen both achieved a very good standard in Coventry. "This was a great match. Devon certainly had his chances, but if he misses them, you have to take advantage and I always did. I also have a lot of experience on a big stage and he has a lot less, you noticed that tonight at the decisive moments ", said Van Gerwen to RTL 7.

"My doubles also went very well, especially double 20, I trained a lot on that together with Vincent van der Voort and it is nice that it is yielding results", continued 'MVG'. Simon Whitlock, who Van Gerwen lost to at the World Matchplay, awaits in the quarterfinals. "I still have a bone to pick with Simon, but I do also have that with other players who I lost to recently (laughs)."
