WHITLOCK BEATS VAN GERWEN 🧙♂️ It's brilliant from Simon Whitlock as he makes it four victories on the spin over Michael van Gerwen, beating him 6-3 to reach the Quarter-Finals. It's a disappointing week for Van Gerwen whose best run comes to an end in the Last 16 stage.
Whitlock hands Van Gerwen fourth straight defeat as disappointing Super Series concludes
PDCWednesday, 28 April 2021 at 07:03
Michael van Gerwen will leave PDC Super Series III without a title once more as the ProTour woes of the World Number Three continue.
Van Gerwen reached the Last 16 on Tuesday after previously not making it past the Last 64 in the days prior.
He lost out though to Simon Whitlock who produced a fourth straight defeat against Mighty Mike winning 6-3 in the end.
Prior to his defeat, while not being at his best, he showed signs that he might go on a run with wins over Gary Blades (6-3), Lukas Wenig (6-3) and John Michael (6-1).
But Whitlock went 4-1 up on Van Gerwen and the latter took out his frustrations with his display by smashing in a superb 145 checkout befitting of his celebration following that.
But this didn't derail the Aussie ace who broke back immediately and surged to victory from there to reach the Quarter-Finals 6-3.
It'll be back to the drawing board for The Green Machine after not claiming a title in April for the first time since 2011.

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024

- He used this kind of anger as motivation to get past this round. Next round he will revert to his usual form. 90 or below ave and a defeat.medinabello23-12-2024
